G                                      Am
Dum dum dum dumby doo wah, ooh-yay yay yay yeah
    C    D7          G       D7         G
Oh-oh-oh-oh-wah,    only the lonely,   only the lonely
 
         G
Only the lonely    dum dum dum dumby doo wah,
              Am

         D7
only the lonely   dum dum dum dumby doo wah,
  C             G
know this feelin' ain't right   dum dum dum dumby doo wah.
 
      G                   G7
There goes my baby, there goes my heart,
     C                A7      D7
they're gone forever , so far apart
             G           C   D7                 G
But only the lonely know why    I cry, only the lonely.
 
G                                      Am
Dum dum dum dumby doo wah, ooh-yay yay yay yeah
    C    D7         G      D7          G
Oh-oh-oh-oh-wah,   only the lonely,   only the lonely.

         G                                    Am
Only the lonely know the heartaches I've been through,
         D7            C                   G
only the lonely know I cried and cried for you.
                        G7
Maybe tomorrow, a new romance,
        C                      D
No more sorrow, but that's the chance,
                        C            D7               G
you gotta take, if your lonely heart breaks, only the lonely.
 
Dum dum dum dumby doo wah.
