Gtr. 2: (quickly pick the chords- not sure on the pattern)
Am Bm C Dm Em F
she's crossing out the details.
Em Dm Am Bm
dusting off the picture frames, it's saturday.
C Dm Em F Em Dm
she's been waiting for the phone to ring.
Am
she's been waiting all night.
Bm C Dm Em F
but it doesn't matter who's on the line
Em Dm Am Bm
as long as the voice works.
C Dm Em F Em Dm
but you're too scared of what you might say.
Am Bm C Dm
so you think it out on paper, hypothetical and safer.
Em F Em
while she's thumbing through her catalogues,
Dm Am Bm
picking birthday cards, her favourite stars.
C Dm Em F Em Dm
i guess she's lonelier than you.

C G
and you can fill it up with letters.
F
back when things were better.
C G
and both of you had blinders on
F Am Bm
and story books together.
C Dm Em F Em Dm Am Bm
and you pretend it outweighs all the bad things.
C Dm Em F Em Dm
and now she disconnects her phone, after the second ring.
Am Bm
and all the drama you can swallow.
C Dm Em F Em Dm Am Bm
never check your ego.
C Dm Em F Em Dm
i guess no one's lonelier than you.
