Intro
Em, C, G, C# x3
D#m B F# C#
She wears her body like a lifetime achievement
D#m B F# C#
It fills the silence when she doesn't know the words
D#m B F# C#
And he is working on his lifetime achievement
D#m B F# C#
But all they want is to be instantly intimate
Em, C, G, C#
D#m B F# C#
You've got no mother, when you're dressed up for strangers
D#m B F# C#
You keep pretending that you never feel the pain
D#m B F# C#
And he holds his lovers, like they're quarters for payphones
D#m B F# C# B C#
They fill the silence and he doesn't even know their names
Chorus
B D#m B D#m
But I'm a lonely girl, na, na, na, na, na
B D#m B D#m C#
And I can change the world, and everything I am
B D#m B (break) D#m
But I'd rather be alone than someone you take home
(Em), C, G, C# x2
D#m B F# C#
Well the world adores you for the man you have sold them
D#m B F# C#
It fills the silence when you can't believe your name
D#m B F# C#
But I'm not your witness, I won't answer your questions
D#m B F# C#
You're just a lonely man who needs someone to blame
Chorus
B D#m B D#m
But I'm a lonely girl, na, na, na, na, na
B D#m B D#m
And I can change the world, and everything I am
B D#m B D#m
But I'd rather be alone, I'd rather be alone
B
Than someone...
Bridge
B F# C#
And I know the feeling when love is a stranger
B F# C#
And you've never been in such beautiful danger
B F# C#
And I know the feeling when love is a stranger
B F# C#
And you've never been in such beautiful danger
Chorus
B D#m B D#m
Because I'm a lonely girl, na, na, na, na, na
B D#m B D#m
And I could change the world and everything I am
B D#m B D#m
Yeah, I'm a lonely girl, na, na, na, na, na
B D#m B D#m C#
And I could change the world and everything I am
B D#m B D#m
But I'd rather be alone, na, na, na, na, na
B D#m B D#m
I'd rather be alone than someone you take home
Em, C, G, C# x2
