Most Lonely Face chords by The Holloways

Chords with lyrics

Intro:
C majorC
The story's a sad one, the sort that you hear all the time
FF
But this time I'll bore you with details and open your mind
     A minorAm                        C majorC
It's the tale of a young girl who once was the talk of the town

Verse:
C majorC
The first time I saw her the skin was so thin on her bones
  FF
Her eyes they were lost on that street though she called it her home
   C majorC
So I thought can I save her, can I get her out of harm's way
  FF
And she looked at me with those eyes so what could I say

Chorus 1:
     C majorC
So I said what's your name
          FF
And she said you're all the same
        C majorC
So I said don't act so strange
    FF
I only asked your name

Verse:
C majorC
The stars in the night sky she'd seen only once in her life
  FF
But stars over girls parts on call cards she sees every night
     C majorC
She said somewhere in my tattoo jungle you will find my mum
  FF
But she will disown me should she ever learn what I've done

Chorus 1:
       C majorC
And she said what became
   FF
Of my promised fame
   C majorC
All I got was shame
          FF
And she said you're all to blame

Chorus 2:
            C majorC
And then her eyes said don't you leave me standing on my own
FF
Can't you see the streetside is my home
  C majorC
I'm held by men at night but still I'm cold
    FF
I'm so lonely but you know I'm not alone
FF
I'm not alone
FF
I'm not alone

Verse:
    C majorC
She had hair like a willow tree choked at the side of the road
     FF
Cardboard boxes for pillows she weeps as she reaps what she sows
   C majorC
So I asked her if one day she mind joining me in my grave
  FF
You know like the big ones you see with the family name

Bridge 1:
  A minorAm                       E minorEm
But she said all she'd ever been was a whore and a slave
  DmDm                     G+G
And she didn't know if she had any soul left to save

Chorus 1:
       C majorC
And she said why'd you care
     FF
So I said because I dared
           C majorC
Ever since I saw you standing there
        FF
Well I couldn't help but stare

Chorus 2:
            C majorC
And then her eyes said don't you leave me standing on my own
FF
Can't you see the streetside is my home
  C majorC
I'm held by men at night but still I'm cold
    FF
I'm so lonely but you know I'm not alone
FF
I'm not alone
FF
I'm not alone

Bridge 2:
  C majorC
And she must have had the most lonely face I've ever known
   FF
Yeah she must have had the most lonely face I've ever known
    E minorEm                        A minorAm
Well I tried to hold on but my grip it just was not that strong
   G+G
I can still see her eyes as she fell and she fell for so long

Verse:
  C majorC
If you ever see her I hope you succeed where I failed
 FF
You know I cried for the cutie of Kings Cross the day she derailed
  C majorC
Oh somebody please can you save her and take her away
     FF
You know London will kill her you can't let the smoke have its way
