Viciously Lonely Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][Am][D]
[G][D][Am][D]

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

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][Am][D]
[G][D][Am][D]

[Verse 2]
The [G]trees are killing off
in a [D]lovely kind [Am]of wa[D]y
[G]And of course, I'm pleading
from the [D]porch,
[Am]"Just [D]stay"
[G]Maybe the winter will cut me
some [D]slack this [Am]year[D]
[G]Maybe I'm telling myself
what I'd [D]like [Am]to h[D]ear

[Pre-chorus 1]
To[Am]night I hope I fall asleep
before [D]my hands do
I [Am]might come close to drifting off,
but I [D]don't plan to

[Chorus 1]
I'm viciously [G]lonely, lost respect
[D]My best [Am]friend is the crick in my neck
[D]Sit back and [G]stone me, toss your rocks
[D]Pretty good [Am]aim
if you count [D]headshots

[Interlude 2]
[G][D][Am][D]
[G][D][Am][Am]
[Cm][Bm][Am][Eb]
[Cm][Bm][Am]
[D][Am][D][Am]
[D][Am][D]

[Bridge 1]
[G]I tend to spend a couple hours a day
[Am]Waiting by the phone hoping
there's nothing to say, but
[Bm]I've got the feeling that my wake up call
[Bbm]Is on its way[Am]
But [G]as my youth begins to expire
I'll [Am]slowly put a little less wood on the fire
But [Bm]maybe it'll turn like a roll of old [Bbm]film
Or a [Am]bottle of wine that's been waiting [D]to spill

[Chorus 2]
Viciously [G]lonely, tossed around
[D]Most these [Am]days, stuck in town
So [D]come on and [G]show me, lay it down
Put the [D]band in the [Am]deep end,
and try to get [D]loud

[Solo 1]
[G][Slide][D][Am][D]
[G][D][Am][D]
[G][D][Am][D]
[G][D][Am][D]

[Outro 1]
[Am]All the flags are halfway down the p[D]oles
So [Am]why are the dogs still barking
at the [D]fireworks show
