I’m tir ed of (A)be ing a lone,

so hur ry up and get here.

I’m so ti red of (A)be ing a lone,

so hur ry up and get here, (A5)get here.

Search ing all my days just to find you, I’m not sure who I’m look ing for.

I’ll (Gsus2)know it

when I see you.

Un til ter then I’ll hide in my bed room, and stay ing up all night just to write a (Gsus2)love song

for no one.

I’m tir ed of (A)be ing a lone,

so hur ry up and get here.

I’m so ti red of (A)be ing a lone,

so hur ry up and get here, (A5)get here.

Could I (D)have missed my chance and watched you (A)walk a way?

Oh, no way.
