Intro :
Em7(with a finger on B the 3rd fret) then lift off after few strums - - Asus2
Verse I :
Walkin through the city
Em7 (lift finger off B string 3rd fret)
Was as lonely as could be
I m wanderin in the night-time out in search of company
I feel real isolation
Em7 (lift finger off B string 3rd fret)
When all around me life
Familiar but unfriendly
Unfriendly with no choice
And, I can see the evil
Em7 (lift finger off B string 3rd fret)
But I can feel the good
Shining out to greet me
From within bone and blood
I m throwin off this loneliness
Em7 (lift finger off B string 3rd fret)
I can t stick it anymore
Only need myself tonight to open up that door
Pre-Chorus :
- - - -
And I know that sometimes it gets so baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad
- - - -
But you re not on your own so don t be saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad
Chorus :
- - - -
Cos if you feel real bad then you re not on your own tonight
- - - -
Please don t be so sad cos you re not on your own tonight
Oh yeah yeah yeah,
You see I know the feelin
Don t have to tell me nothin
Cos you know I know the feeling
Verse II :
(Repeat like I)
Everybody seems to think it s they who bear the pain
They who bear the biggest cross
The loneliness and the shame
Day to day you suffer when you re livin in your past
If you started livin for the now you could free yourself at last
If you started living for the now, for yourself and those around,
Experience and celebrate the freedom that you ve found
You could free yourself forever, and live life as you should
The choice is yours to take now cos I ve said all that I could.
Pre-Chorus :
(Repeat like Pre-Chorus I)
But I know that sometimes it gets so bad
But you re not on your own so don t be sad
Chorus :
Cos if you feel real bad then you re not on your own tonight
Please don t be so sad cos you re not on your own tonight
Well if you feel real bad then you re not on your own tonight
Please don t be so sad cos you re not on your own tonight
Oh yeah yeah yeah,
You see I know the feelin
Don t have to tell me nothin
You know I know the feeling
Well if you feel real bad then you re not on your own
Please don t be so sad cos you re not on your own
Tonight...
