And he is working on his lifetime achievement
Am F C G

Am F C G
You've got no mother, when you're dressed up for strangers

And he holds his lovers, like they're quarters for payphones

They fill the silence and he doesn't even know their names
Chorus

But I'd rather be alone than someone you take home

Am F C G
Well the world adores you for the man you have sold them

You're just a lonely man who needs someone to blame
