Chords with lyrics
Intro: strum once each
E minorEm B7B7 B minorBm A7A7 2x
hello fortitude. Are you listening?
E minorEm B7B7 (or BB) B minorBm A7A7
Take a broken love song, keep it by your side
E minorEm B7B7 (or BB) B minorBm A7A7
Never be lonely, find a place to hide
E minorEm B7B7 (or BB) B minorBm A7A7
By the west way, inside the scrubs
E minorEm B7B7 (or BB) B minorBm A7A7 E minorEm
How long must we wait for theyre killing us, killing us
(for that last Em, I like to play with a few extra notes for the notes that the piano is playing)

B minorBm F minorFm
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
B minorBm F minorFm E minorEm B7B7 B minorBm A7A7
They are the loneliest, still
Through my cell window
Hear the loft boy sing
Come on, you R's
Carried on the wind
Every morning I'll be singing
Like a caged bird you might say
John, Paul, George and Ringo
Help pass the hours away
Free as a bird will I be
Another dawn creeps up on me, on me
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
BB D MajorD
Letters from faceless haters
E MajorE G+G A augmentedA
Who'd love to see me swing in my cell. Oh why,
BB D MajorD
I never saw a man who looked with such a wistful eye
E MajorE G+G A augmentedA B minorBm
Upon that little tent of blue, prisoners call the skyyyyyyyyy
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest, still
Take a broken love song
Keep it by your side
