verse 1:
                  F
        Only the lonely (dum-dum-dum-dumby-doo-wah)

        There goes my baby
                       F7
        There goes my heart
                        Bb
        They're gone forever
                 G7   C7
        So far apart
                      F
        But only the lonely
              Bb
        Know why

verse 2:
        Only the lonely
        Know the heartaches I've been through
        Only the lonely
        Know I cried and cried for you
        Maybe tomorrow
        A new romance
        No more sorrow
        But that's the chance
        (n.c)
        You gotta take
                 Bb            C7
        If your lonely heart breaks
                   F
        Only the lonely
