[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
E
Just a little boy lost looking for a lamb in the all night city
E
Living in his lonely limousine
A
And though he never has to worry
C#m G#m B
He's the only one and only one he's ever gonna need
B
Absolutely he's in definite need
[Verse 2]
E
Of a woman, child, and some better kind of love when the hot town's hurt him
E
And he knows how happy he could be
A
But he don't know if he can make it
C#m G#m
Between the money and another lonely night
B
But now the time has come
B
Got to stay or run
B
Now the time has come
[Chorus]
E
Oh maybe we've been alone too long
F#m7 B E
And you don't want to be lonely
E
Maybe we've been alone too long
F#m7 B E
You don't want to be lonely
[Interlude]
E C#m E C#m E
[Verse 3]
E
Another pretty face another body ache still awake three-thirty
E
Dial another number -- No one home
A
So then he wastes his time with TV
C#m G#m
And he wonders if he lost the only one
B
And wonders if he's free
B
Too afraid to see
B
How alone he could be
[Chorus]
E
Oh maybe we've been alone too long
F#m7 B E
And you don't want to be lonely
E
Maybe we've been alone too long

You don't want to be lonely

You've been alone too long, oh don't want to be lonely
