Remember the pull-off notes on the high E; with the F & G chords.
There are a few more hammer on's and pull off�s in the chorus.
Intro:
C Cmaj7 Fadd2 G6
Verse:
C Cmaj7
After the show you walked right past.
F G6
Arms reached out for your autograph.
C Cmaj7
And as you flashed your backstage pass.
F G6
I caught your eye with a camera's flash.
Bridge:
C Cmaj7 Fadd2 F G G6
Verse:
When the band came out they stood behind you.
Cymbals crashed, the lights went blue.
You stood alone in the halo's haze.
Shiny guitar hung on gold lamay;
Chorus:
C F
And you, you were the lonely one
C F
You were the lonely one.
Bridge (x2)
Verse:
When you perform it's so intense.
When the critics pan I write in your defense.
I understand I'm just a fan,
I'm just a fan.
Verse:
When I get home I turn off the alarm.
I've checked the phone, no messages on.
I play the ones from yesterday.
I play you're song just to hear you say that....
Chorus:
You, you're the lonely one.
You are the lonely one.
You, you're the lonely one.
You are the lonely one.
Bridge (x2)
