Verse:
D             G  A
 Poor town's closing
D         G   A
 For the night
D           G    A
 I fed the juke box
D          G  A
 Drank my wine
 
D           G  A
 Abandoned tables
D         G   A
 Money's dow-own
D             G  A
 Here's your number

D          G       A    G        G
I want to call it but I wo-on't
                         A
I want to dial it but I don't
 
 
Chorus:
   D         G  A
I'm  holding on to
D            G  A
 I'm holding on to
D           G      A   D   G  A  D
I'm holding on to lonely
 
D         G    A
I'm just wrestling
D         G    A
 With my needs
D              G  A
It's feast or famine
D              G   A  D
 It's lust or greed
 
D                G    A
I've gotta feel something
D       G  A
To be alive
D           G A
I've got a habit
D           G       A       G
 Of always pushing things away-ay-ay
       G                             A
Yeah, lonely seems to be the safest plaaa-a-ace
 
 
Chorus:
    D            G  A
So, I'm  holding on to
D            G  A
 I'm holding on to
D           G      A  D   G  A
I'm holding on to lonely
 
D            G  A
I'm  holding on to
D            G  A
 I'm holding on to
D           G      A   D
I'm holding on to lonelyyy-yyy

Verse:
D        G      A
Morning breaks with
D           G    A
 A certain truth
D            G A
There's no erasing
D              G  A
 The things we do
 
D             G A
 Yeah it's so easy
D      G   A
 To go ho-ome
D         G    A
 Put the chain up
D        G        A       G
 On the door and run and hiii-ide
 G                         A         D
Never ever look it in the eyyye-eye-eye
 
 
Chorus:
D            G  A
