[Verse 1]
F#
Late again to dinner
G#m
Gave you three weeks notice
D#m Cb
As per your requirement
F#
But you're counting down the minutes
G#m
'Til your next appointment
D#m Cb
Stuck in awkward silence
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m F#
Underneath what you do, there's nothing but blue
C# G#m
And pieces that don't have a place (No place)
D#m F#
Everyone sees clearly, they're scared to hurt your feelings
C#
Now, let me tell it to your face
[Chorus]
F#
You're a lonely cactus
G#m
All on your own
D#m Cb
You're only the type to sit by the phone
F#
A# lonely cactus
G#m
In the desert sun
D#m Cb
But you're scared if you get too close
[Verse 2]
F# G#m
You wonder why nobody tries anymore
D#m Cb
You bleed us dry, still want it all
F# G#m
There's more to life than chasing you in circles
D#m Cb
Do you wanna run at all?
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m F#
Underneath what you do, there's nothing but blue
C# G#m
And pieces that don't have a place (No place)
D#m F#
I'm so tired of hearing, "Leave your name and number"
C#
Now let me tell it to your face
[Chorus]
F#
You're a lonely cactus
G#m
All on your own
D#m Cb
You're only the type to sit by the phone
F#
A# lonely cactus
G#m
In the desert sun
D#m Cb
But you're scared if you get too close
[Post-Chorus]
F#
You'll hurt someone
G#m
Do-do-do-do
Oh, oh
D#m Cb
Do-do-do-do
F#
You'll hurt someone
G#m
Do-do-do-do
Oh, oh

[Bridge]
D#m F# C# G#m
I'll weather the storm and I'll take all these thorns 'cause I miss you
D#m F# C#
I'll break through the armour you've worn for so long 'cause you miss me too
[Chorus]
F#
You're a lonely cactus
G#m
All on your own
D#m Cb
You're only the type to sit by the phone
F#
A# lonely cactus
G#m
In the desert sun
D#m Cb
And you're scared I'll get in too close (Oh-woah)

You're a lonely cactus
