Viciously Lonely

[Intro]
G Am G Am
 
[Verse 1]
 
G
My new house sits upon the clouds
Am
Right next door is the lost and found
G
Picking fights with the ghost down stairs
Am
Turn off the lights and plug my ears

G                                     Am
The trees are killing off in a lovely kind of way
G                                          Am
And of course I'm pleading from the porch just stay
G                                           Am
Maybe the winter will cut me some slack this year
G                                         Am
Maybe I'm telling myself what I'd like to hear
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
Am9
Tonight I hope I fall asleep
          D
Before my hands do
Am
I might come close to drifting off
            D
But I don't plan to
 
[Chorus]
              G
I'm viciously lonely
Lost respect
        Am
My best friend is the crick in my neck
             G
Sit back and stone me
Toss your rocks
            Am   Am9
Pretty good aim if you count head shots

[Bridge]
 
G
I tend to spend a couple hours a day
Am
Waiting by the phone hoping there's nothing to say
Bm                                            Bbm       Am
But I've got the feeling that my wake up call is on its way
    G
But as my youth begins to expire
     Am
I'll slowly put a little less wood on the fire
    Bm                                  Bbm
But maybe it'll turn like a roll of old film
Am
Or a bottle of wine
                         D7
That's been waiting to spill
 
[Chorus 2]
 
G
Viciously lonely
Tossed around
           Am
Most these days I'm stuck in town
               Gmaj7
So come on and show me
Lay it down
                    Am
Put the band in the deep-end
      Am9
And try to get loud
 
G Am G Am G Am G Am
 
[Outro]
 
    Am                                      D
And all the flags are halfway down the poles
   Am                                D
So why are dogs still barking at the fireworks show
