C Em C Em


[Verse 1]
C                                   Em
Ready to embrace the day as we both break
         F                           C         G
When the light stole in, it found me wide awake
C                                                    Em
Wasted from a sleepless night, I reach to touch your hair
            F                         C           G
Withdraw an empty hand, for you're no longer there


[Pre-chorus]
F                                           G
In between the silence, leaving is an empty space
         F
Save the ticking of a clock
                                  G
Whose hands are sweeping past its face


[Chorus]
      C                     Em            F
And I just don't want to be lonely, no, no
          G
Night and day
         C               Em               F
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
G          Dm7
For you only


[Verse 2]
C                                               Em
I turn my hand to something that would clear my head
            F                      C              G
But I could not forget the parting words we shared
  C                                             Em
I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace
            F                       C           G
But I could not recall the contours of your face


[Pre-chorus]
     F                                              G
And, oh, he slipped away before I had the chance to say,
    F
"If I did something wrong, please tell me;
                G
I'll accept the blame"


[Chorus]
  C                     Em            F
I just don't want to be lonely, no, no
          G
Night and day
         C               Em               F
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
G          Dm7
For you only


[Chorus]
      C                     Em            F
And I just don't want to be lonely, no, no
          G
Night and day
         C               Em               F
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
G          Dm7            C
For you only, for you only


[Break]
              Em            C
For you're no longer there
              Em
For you're no longer there


[Pre-chorus]
F                                           G
In between the silence, leaving is an empty space
         F
Save the ticking of a clock
                                  G
Whose hands are sweeping past its face


[Chorus]
      C                     Em            F
And I just don't want to be lonely, no, no
          G
Night and day
         C               Em               F
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
G          Dm7
For you only


[Chorus to fade]
  C                     Em            F
I just don't want to be lonely, no, no
          G
Night and day
         C               Em               F
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
G          Dm7            C
For you only, for you only
