🤘 Verse 1:

E5            C5
  In my hour of need
E5                   C5
  Ha, no, you're not there
E5                    D5
  And though I reached out for you
B5                G5  B5
  Wouldn't lend a hand
E5            C5
  Through the darkest hour
E5               C5
  Your grace did not shine on me
E5         D5
  Feels so cold
B5                  G5        B5 E5
  Very cold, no one cares for me

          E5
  Did you ever think I'd get lonely?
          C5
  Did you ever think that I needed love?
          C#m
  Did you ever think to stop thinking?
          C5
  You're the only one that I'm thinking of
E5             C5              C#m
  You'll never know how hard I tried
     C5
  To find my space and satisfy you too

E5             C5
  But, oh, how I lived my life for you
C#m              C5
  and you turned away
E5        C5
  Now, as I die for you
     C#m                     C5
  My flesh still crawls as I breathe your name
E5          C5                     C#m
  All these years
I thought I was wrong
        C5
  Now I know it was you
E5           C5
  Raise your head
             C#m        C5
  Raise your face, your eyes, tell me who you think you are

Solo
E5 C5 A5 B5 x2



  E5       C5              A5
  Time has a way of taking time
  B5            E5       C5           A5  B5
  Loneliness is not only felt by fools
  E5               C5             A5             B5           E5
  Alone
I call to ease the pain, yearning to be held by you, alone
     C5               A5              B5
  So alone
I'm lost, consumed by the pain
      E5        C5        A5              B5      E5
  The pain, the pain, the pain; won't you hold me again?
  C5                A5     B5
  You just laughed, ha-ha, bitch
  E5         C5                   A5     B5
  Whole life is work built on the past, time has come
       E5  C5              A5 B5
  When all things shall pass, this good thing passed away
