Lonely One by Wilco
Lonely One
Remember the pull-off notes on the high E; with the F & G chords.
There are a few more hammer on's and pull off’s in the chorus.
Intro:
C Cmaj7 Fadd2 G6
Verse:
C Cmaj7
After the show you walked right past.
F G6
Arms reached out for your autograph.
C Cmaj7
And as you flashed your backstage pass.
F G6
I caught your eye with a camera's flash.
Bridge:
C Cmaj7 Fadd2 F G G6
Verse:
When the band came out they stood behind you.
Cymbals crashed, the lights went blue.
You stood alone in the halo's haze.
Shiny guitar hung on gold lamay;
Chorus:
C F
And you, you were the lonely one
C F
You were the lonely one.
Bridge (x2)
Verse:
When you perform it's so intense.
When the critics pan I write in your defense.
I understand I'm just a fan,
I'm just a fan.
Verse:
When I get home I turn off the alarm.
I've checked the phone, no messages on.
I play the ones from yesterday.
I play you're song just to hear you say that....
Chorus:
You, you're the lonely one.
You are the lonely one.
You, you're the lonely one.
You are the lonely one.
Bridge (x2)

Full Lyrics
After the show you walked right past
Arms reached out for your autograph
And as you flashed your backstage pass
I caught your eye with a camera's flash
When the band came out they stood behind you
Cymbals crashed, the lights went blue
You stood alone in the halo's haze
Shinny guitar hung on gold lamay
And you, you were the lonely one
You were the lonely one
When you perform it's so intense
When the critics pan I write in your defense
I understand I'm just a fan, I'm just a fan
When I get home I turn off the alarm
I've checked the phone, no messages on
I play the ones from yesterday
I play you're song just to hear you say that..
You, you're the lonely one
You are the lonely one
You, you're the lonely one
You are the lonely one.
