E

It was late at night as well as I remember

A

She was sitting in an empty bus depot

B7

No one had to tell me she was lonely

E

Cause I know all the places where lonely people go

E

She smiled but then I knew that she'd been crying

A

I'm sure she didn't mean for it to show

B7

But I can tell when someone's heart is broken

E

Cause I've known all the heartaches that lonely people know

E

I said come live with me, she answered why not

A

And if it's wrong, I said, we'll make it right

B7

But right or wrong we belong together

E

Cause lonely people need each other, especially at night

F

She said to me don't promise me tomorrow

Bb

Just give as much today as you can spare

C7

Cause if we start to look ahead tomorrow

F

We may run out of time before we're there

F

I've had lovers, I've had friends, and I can tell you

Bb

Friends will help you get your troubles off your mind

C7

But lovers they bring all their troubles with them

F

And when they leave you they leave a lot of loneliness behind

F#

She wasn't strong, but life don't last forever

B

Still I thought we'd have at least a year or so

C#7

But then one day she packed it in and left me

F#

I guess the good Lord promised her a better place to go

F#

I told myself this really didn't happen

B

I tried to pray as I began to kneel

C#7

I looked down at the place where they had put her

F#

When I touched the dirt I knew that it was real

F#

Well tonight I'll find some all night bar that's open

B

I may run into someone there I know

C#7

Cause when you're down, you need someone to talk to

F#

And I know all the places where lonely people go.
