Capo 3.
[Intro]
Em B C G B7
[Verse 1]
Em B
2 a.m., where do I begin?
C G B7
Crying off my face again
Em B
The silent sounds of loneliness
C G B7
Wants to follow me to bed
[Pre-Chorus]
C D G Em
I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most
C D B
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well
[Chorus]
Em B
Dancing slowly in an empty room
C G B7
Can the lonely take the place of you?
Em B
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
C G B7
Let you go and let the lonely in to take my heart again
[Interlude]
Em B
[Verse 2]
Em B
Too afraid to go inside
C G B7
For the pain of one more loveless night
Em B
But the loneliness will stay with me
C G B7
And hold me 'til I fall asleep
[Pre-Chorus]
C D G Em
I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most
C D B
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well
[Chorus]
Em B
Dancing slowly in an empty room
C G B7
Can the lonely take the place of you?
Em B
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
C G B7
Let you go and let the lonely in to take my heart again
[Bridge]
Em D G C
Broken pieces of
Em D G Am G
A barely breathing story
Em D G C
Where there once was love
Em D G Am B7
Now there's only me and the lonely
[Chorus]
Em B
Dancing slowly in an empty room
C G B7
Can the lonely take the place of you?
Em B
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
C G B7
Let you go and let the lonely in to take my heart again
[Coda]
Em B C G B7

Beautiful...simply beautiful. I've finally found the perfect chords...and the perfect pitch...merci.
Just a suggestion for those who play this on the piano like i do, a B7 after the B just before the chorus sounds perfect....or maybe not? Try it,though. I liked the feel..
anyway~ me luv dis!
