[Chorus]
Madilyn Bailey:
C F
I don't wanna be left
C
In this war tonight
G
Am I alone in this fight?
Am
Is anybody out there?
Yeah
Am F
Don't wanna be left
C
In this world behind
G
Say you'll run to my side
[Verse 1]
Corey Gray:
Am
Something 'bout Mary
Never won a pageant
F
Never felt pretty
Never looked like Cameron
C
Diaz was her last name
Always been abandoned
G
Keep your head up
Baby girl, it's your anthem
Am
There goes Hannah
Showin' off her banner
F
Rocking that crown
Make them boys go bananas
C
When you're insecure about yourself
It's a fact
G
You can point a finger
But there's three pointing back
Am
I can see her crying out, yeah
F
Is there anybody out there?
C
She's really counting on your love
G
Still struggling uphill
But you act like you don't care
Am
Right now she could really use a shoulder
F
Hanging onto the edge 'til it's over
C
She's crying out for your love tonight
G C
Lonely is hard to survive, she said
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Corey Gray:
Am
His name was Adam
When his mom had him
C
Dad was a phantom never took a look at him
Grew up mad and antisocial
G
Hated outdoors, always in playing madden
Am
Adam was lonely
Drugs were the only
F
Way out of his own life
C
Now he's slowly losing his fire
Close to retire
G Am
With one last hope, he puts his arms higher
F
I can see him crying out, yeah
C
Is anybody out there?
He's really counting on your love
G
Still struggling uphill
Am
But you act like you don't care
F
Right now he could really use a shoulder
C
Hanging onto the edge 'til it's over
G
He's crying for your love tonight

If you feel the way I feel

Like you've been talking to yourself

Searching for someone like you
