{verse 1:} G Lonely boys and your lonely girls Am Here at the end of the lonely world CEm You?re finding out, if there?s someone to cry about
Lonely girls and your lonely boys Playing alone with your lonely toys Well don?t be blue, coz there?s no-one to play with you
{chorus:} GC Get a grip on yourself, you know you should ACG I gotta a grip on myself and it feels good GC Get a grip on yourself, take my advice ACG I gotta grip on myself and it feels nice
{verse 2:} Well the lights turn on, and the party?s through There?s always a few with nobody to do Well now don?t despair, you?ll eventually get there
And meanwhile all of the lonely ones Here?s what to do while you wait for the sun To rise above, the loneliest kind of love
{chorus}
