Capo on fret 1
[Verse 1]
C
I'm so afraid of saying something wrong
F
There's a real danger in saying nothing at all
C
That I'll go back to the rabbit and drink, yeah
F
Half-cut, fired up, say what I think
C
That you're funny, interesting, too
F
That the air warms up when you walk in the room
C
That I still dream about the night we met
F Fm
How I don't mean it now as I meant it then
[Chorus]
C F
What could be as lonely as love?
C F
What could ever hurt this much?
C F
What if you're the only one?
[Verse 2]
C
So let me in, let me in from out of the cold
F
I'm okay, I'm doing fine -- the greatest lie ever told
C
Even I don't recognize reflections of mine
F Fm
When I'm the next call down the emergency line, I'll say
[Chorus]
C F
What could be as lonely as love?
C F
What could ever hurt this much?
C F
What if you're the only one?
C F
What could be as lonely as love?
[Bridge]
C
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
F
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
C
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
F
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
C
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
F
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
C
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
F
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
C
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
[Chorus]
C F
What could be as lonely as love?
C F
What could ever hurt this much?
C F
What if you're the only one? (It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean)
C F
What could be as lonely as love? (It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean)
[Bridge]
C
Oh, it's a cruel tide, a violent ocean (What could be as lonely as love?)
F
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
C
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean (What could be as lonely as love?)
F
It's a cruel tide, a violent ocean
[Outro]
C F
What could be as lonely as love?
C F
What could be as lonely as love?
