Lonlier Than This chords by Steve Earle

Steve Earle - Lonelier Than This

 Capo 4

Em   G/F#   G  2X

  Em         G/F#    G
  It doesn't get any lonelier than this
                        C
  I believe my heart'll break
            G                       D
  Tonight I prayed I'd die before I wake
       Em      G/F#       G
  With every   breath I'm tastin' your kiss
                         C
  And it's sweet upon my tongue
                   G          G/F#   Em
  Until the bitter tears fall one by one

  Em         G/F#    G
  Well, it doesn't get any lonelier than this
                        C
  'Cause I'm on this road alone
            G                       D
  My heartbeat ringin' like a hollow drum
       Em      G/F#       G
  I'm about as lonesome as a poor boy gets
                         C
  And there's nothin' I can do
                   G          G/F#   Em
  'Cause it's dark out here and I can't find you
  Em         G/F#    G
  It doesn't get any lonelier than this


  Em         G/F#    G
  It doesn't get any lonelier than this
                        C
  I'm as blue as blue can be
            G                       D
  Just an empty place where your love should be
       Em      G/F#       G
  I'm sick and tired of walkin' around like this
                         C
  With my heart outside my skin
                   G          G/F#   Em
  Scared to death we'll never touch again


  Em         G/F#    G
  It doesn't get any lonelier than this
                        C
  And there's no place I can go
            G                       D
  Just the dusty corners that the shadows know
       Em      G/F#       G
  Maybe this is as good as it's gonna get
                         C
  And I'll always be this way
                   G          G/F#   Em
  I'll just wander this world callin' out your name
  Em         G/F#    G
  But it doesn't get any lonelier than this
