[E] [A]
[E]
[F#m] [C#m]
Hello again, [A] the words they make me [G#m] smile As I drift [A] away in my little [C#m] room upstairs
Oh, I spend my nights imagining your face, your [E] touch
Then I [B] realize how I don't even know your
[F#m] name
If we could share our [B] time, would I disappoint your [F#m] fantasies?
But I believe that I [B] could be the one you're needing
[E] Cause I'm only lonely on [A] the inside
[E] That means I'll take away [A] your [B] dreams
[E] I'm only lonely on [A] the [G#m] inside
[F#m] When you close your eyes [B] to your deepest [F#]
thoughts
[C#m] And I could start to give apologies
[F#] [G#m] For all the stupid things [A] that [C#m] I will say and I will do
If we should ever cross the same place at the same [E] time
Would your world [B] skip a beat?
Cause if it was me
[F#m] If we could share our life, [B] would I disappoint your [F#m] memories?
And I believe that you [B] could be the one I'm needing
And [E] I'm only lonely [A] on the inside
[E] But I need to take away [A] your [B] [E] dreams
I'm only lonely [A] on the inside
[G#m]
When [F#m] you close your eyes to [B] your deepest [G#] thoughts
If I could give back [C#m] your hopes, your joys, your treasures
[G#]
Don't you think that I would [C#m] change my [B] world?
[A] But [B] there's so many things [E] trying [B] to pull us [A] together
[F#m] And even though we're far apart, I can [B] still watch you walk [E] away
I'm [A]
[E] only lonely on [A] the inside
[F#m] I'm [E] only lonely on the inside
[G#m] When [F#m] you [A] close your [B] eyes, what do [E] you see?
I'm only lonely [A] on the inside
And I [E] need to take away [A] your [B]
[E] dreams
I'm only lonely on [A] the inside
[G#m] [F#m] In your deepest thoughts, [B]
what do [E] you see?
I'm only lonely on [A] the inside
[E] I mean, I just need [A] to [E] give you your [B] dreams [E] away
I'm only lonely on [A] the inside
[G#m]
[F#m] When you close your eyes, [B] in your deepest thoughts, do you see [E] me?
I'm only lonely on [A] the inside
I'm only lonely [E]
on [A] the inside
[B] I
[E] see you, I see you
I'm only lonely on [A] the inside
[E] I'm only lonely on the inside
[A] [B] [E]
