Note: If you plan an A barre chord instead of the G (Capo 2),
you can more easily play the electric guitar fills that are used
in the intro and between verses.
Intro
G C G C
G
There's a red brick in a white wall
C
Somebody's brush forgot to paint
So it sits there all alone
G
Like a hopeful sinner
Who finally goes to church
C
She don't sit among the Christians
'Cause she questions her own worth
Am C
Oh she's lonely
Chorus:
C
Lonely like the way you left me
C
Nothing I know's gonna get me
G
through losing you
C
The worst of love's analogies
Are tangled up inside of me
Am
But the only one that brings
D
me to my knees
G C G C
Is lonely
[Continue same chords as above]
Verse 2
There's a man in his own prison
With a crime nobody knows
He has sentenced himself to life
With no pardon or parole
Oh he's lonely
