She wears her body like a lifetime achievement

F#m D A E
You've got no mother, when you're dressed up for strangers
F#m D A E
You keep pretending that you never feel the pain
F#m D A E
And he holds his lovers, like they're quarters for payphones
F#m D A E D E
They fill the silence and he doesn't even know their names
Chorus
D F#m D F#m
But I'm a lonely girl, na, na, na, na, na
D F#m D F#m E
And I can change the world, and everything I am
D F#m D (break) F#m
But I'd rather be alone than someone you take home
(Em), C, G, E x2
F#m D A E
Well the world adores you for the man you have sold them
F#m D A E
It fills the silence when you can't believe your name
F#m D A E
But I'm not your witness, I won't answer your questions
F#m D A E
You're just a lonely man who needs someone to blame
Chorus
D F#m D F#m

D
Than someone...
