Lonely Man Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I'd[Em] like to dedicate[G] this song to[Em]
[Am]everyone who has someone special in their life.
[Em]We should learn to cheri[Am]sh and
appreciate what we have now.
[Em]Because [G]at any point in [Em]time,
it can be [G]smashed away [Em]from us.
Now I [G]figure with the trigger
I can [Em]end this all.
I could [G]finish my past be
[Em]fore I could fall.
[Am]Staring in the mirror like
so many have done.
Trying to solve my problem
down the [Em]barrel of a [Am]gun.
Thinking to myself, what kind of grief and sorrow
would have a human being forfeited tomorrow?
[G]Well, in my eyes, [Em]a little tear escaped.
[G]In my mind, will my [Em]past be shaved?
I [G]shook, I shiver, [Em]I began to quiver,
[G]wondering if I could [Em]ever forgive her.
Be[Am]lieve in me, with a broken heart,
my spirit and soul torn apart.
[Em]My blue [Am]sky's gray, my future lost,
the present full of pain and remorse.
Believe [G]in me, the [Em]way I am,
[G]by myself, forever, a lonely man.
He can't go [Em]on no more,
[G]you're all he's liv[Em]ing for,
[Am]the precious time to share,
now all that has disappeared.
He can't go on, love is gone,
Dana,
Dana's just a [G]lonely man.
[Em]Now it was o[G]ne of those nights,
like [Em]any other night,
And so we [G]planned to have
dinner by [Em]a candlelight
Now [Am]I'm in the shower,
gettin' refresher
My girl, she's in the kitchen,
havin' the table [Em]dressed
Then [Am]she calls out,
Dane, I'll be back in a few
I have to run to the store on the avenue
I jokingly [G]reply,
Well, I'll be [Em]waitin' like this
Stop [G]bein' so fresh
She said, [Em]throw me a kiss
[G]Pfft, with this she was [Em]on her way
I said, [G]hurry back, honey,
hurry [Em]back, okay?
Now [Am]I was at task,
and she wasn't back
Now I was gettin' worried,
now where's she at?
[Em]That's when [Am]the phone rang
Bling bling, where the hell are you? I concernedly screamed,
but [G]it wasn't her, now it was the police
[Em]An 88 -p[G]erson detective [Em]reached,
he said, [G]this is the home of [Em]a
Linda
McGyver
There's [G]been an accident involving [Em]a drunk driver,
[Am]stunned, confused, I listened in awe
Before he could finish, [Em]I burst out the door,
I [Am]dashed to the hospital in no time to spare
Thinking to myself that it [Em]just isn't fair,
in the [G]emergency, [Em]there I was informed
She had a [G]50 -50 chance
and her will is strong
[Em]In the w[G]aiting room, back an[Em]d forth I pace
As [G]pools of tears rain down my face
[Em]Thinking t[Am]o myself the
things I loved about her
Telling myself that I can't
go on without [Em]her
And [Am]why should I have
to when justice ain't right
For my future to be shattered
in just one [Em]night
But [G]she'll pull through,
cause [Em]she understands
Without [G]her here, [Em]I'm forever a lonely man
[G]He can no [Em]more, no more
[G]You're all he's [Em]living for
[Am]The precious times you shared,
now all that has disappeared
He can't go on, her love is gone
Dana,
Dana's just a [G]lonely man
[Em][G][Em][G][Em]
[Am]Lonely man
Lonely man
Dana
Dane is just a [G]lonely [Em]man[G][Em]
The [G]doc came in, his face [Em]revealing nothing
I [G]pleaded to him, please doc,
[Em]now tell me something
He [Am]left with his head,
brain and face were teary
And what he told me next was that,
oh, my work [Em]is
I [Am]couldn't believe it as I fell to my knees
Oh no lord, it can't be, [Em]oh no lord,
[Am]me[G][Em][G][Em][G]
Now, I [Em]stand here contemplating [G]my end
[Em]But to take my own l[Am]ife,
would that make things
right?
Nah, if she was here, I know she'd say,
Keep your head up,
bae, tomorrow's a new day
Yeah,
I'ma try to start [Em]all over,
[Am]but it's [G]gonna be hard
I'll [Em]try, [G]but I'll still be a lonely [Em]man
[G]He can't go [Em]on no more,
[G]you're all he's liv[Em]ing for
[Am]The precious times you've shared,
now all that has disappeared
He can't go on, love is gone,
Dana
Dayne is just a [G]lonely [Em]man[G][Em]
[G]He can't go on no [Em]more,
[G]you're all he's liv[Am]ing for
The precious times you shared,
now all that has disappeared
[Em]He c[Am]an't go on, love is gone,
Dana,
Dana's just a [G]lonely
[Em]I ca[G]n't go on, I[Em] can't [G]go on,
I can't go [Em]on no more
[Am]He's just a lonely man[G][Em][G]
[Em]He c[G]an't go on n[Am]o more
