Standard (EADGBE)

it's different when you're lonely

the whole world's in love

holding hands between barstools

and you're holding your tongue

hold on!

you're so fucked up, you're so fickle

isn't this what you want?

so simple? so single?

but you're different when you're helpless

when the bar's closed their doors

growing hostile towards your waitress

there's extra tips to ignore

but it's different cause you're desperate

begging mercy on the sidewalk

to a sea of last callers

keep the conversation quick, and keep them interested

but you're different and they sense it

your eyes can't disguise it

so glassy, half empty

ready to spill

so hold on

please don't leave yet

i can't go home alone

it doesn't go over so well

so hold on just a little longer

at least through the night

at least until morning

[oh! oh, oh oh!]

but it's different when you're lonely

[

the whole world's in love

hold on

hold on to me

i can hardly stand (much less the sight of myself)

so hold on

hold on tight dear

put your foot on the gas

get me the fuck out of here
