Gm D
Two AM where do I begin
Eb Bb D
Crying off my face again
Gm D
The silent sound of loneliness
Eb Bb D
Wants to follow me to bed
Gm F Bb Gm
I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most
Gm F Gm D
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well
Gm D
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Eb Bb D
Can the lonely take the place of you
Gm D
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Eb Bb
Let you go and let the lonely in
D
To take my heart again
Gm D
Too afraid to go inside
Eb Bb D
For the pain of one more loveless night
Gm D
But the loneliness will stay with me
Eb Bb D
And hold me til I fall asleep
Gm F Bb Gm
I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most
Gm F Gm D
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well
Gm D
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Eb Bb D
Can the lonely take the place of you
Gm D
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Eb Bb
Let you go and let the lonely in
D
To take my heart again
Gm F Bb F Gm
Broken pieces of
Gm F Bb F Cm Bb
a barely breathing story
Gm F Bb F Eb
Where there once was love
Gm F Bb F Cm D D7
Now there's only me and the lonely
Gm D
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Eb Bb D
Can the lonely take the place of you
Gm D
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Eb Bb
Let you go and let the lonely in
D
To take my heart again
