Intro: A Asus E A A Sus E
A
Asus
E
I'm raising up my voice to the walls and to the sky,
E
A
it seeks no explanation it waits for no reply,
A
E
really it is nothing just a cry to the wilds
A
Asus
E
I'm delirious with chaos, I'm wonderstruck with awe,
E
A
in my soul I'm dreaming only of your velvet shore
A
Asus
E
When I'm walking there my face untangles like a child,
C#m
G#m
And only the lonely
C#m A F#m
only the lonely,
C#m B
lonely could know me
A
E
I've been talking all night long, here's nothing more to say,
E
A
So I'm searching every mirror for a trace of yesterday,
A
Asus E
but the air it holds no traces where the eagles were flying,
A
E
I'm haunted by the skyline the concrete and the rain,
E
A
the window speaks of winter, so I'll set my heart again,
A
Asus E
somewhere in the dust a curlew is crying,
C#m
G#m
And only the lonely
C#m A F#m
only the lonely,
C#m B
lonely could know me
A
I'm talking all night long
E
talking all night
A
Asus E
There's a copper moon that's buried, where solitude expands,
E
A
and distant planets moving they're weighing on my hands,
A
Asus E
they're darkening my pages,
A
Asus
E
and there's daylight in my fingers but it's snowing in my bones,
E
A
been sucking on the echo of a thousand telephones,
A
E
and when we meet again we will be strangers.

And only the lonely
C#m A F#m
only the lonely,
C#m B
lonely could know me
C#m
G#m
And only the lonely
C#m A F#m
only the lonely,
C#m B
lonely could know me
A
I'm talking all night long
