Intro: F


Verse 1:
          C
The lover held her love
           Am
She begged him not to go
             C
The fighter wrapped his gloves
          Am
The fighter said I know, I know, I know
          G
Just this one last time
             F
I swear you'll still be mine
           Am
But he can't promise much
           G
He goes for one last touch, one last touch

Chorus 1:
F             Am   G
Maybe we were meant to be lonely, lonely
F             Am   G
Maybe we were meant to be on our own
F             Am    G
Loneliness has always been with me, with me
F               Am  G
But maybe we don't have to be all alone

Break 1: C


(Start Riff 3)

Verse 2:
          C
The fighter goes inside
           Am
The doubt is creeping in
            C
He swings with all his might
            Am
At all that might have been
            F
And she's in love with him
            G
But lovers don't always win
            Am
He never even saw the swing
         C
She calls out his name, calls his name

But maybe we don't have to be all alone

Is all in how you carry

Verse 3:
  Em  Em    D
The lover held her love
           Bm
She begged him not to go
         D
She unwrapped his gloves
         Bm
The lover said I know, I know, I know
           G
Kissed his trembling lips
         A
She touched fingertips
            Bm
But somehow they both know

He's not coming home, Coming home
