[Strophe]
C 
It's not your eyes 
         G       C 
It's not what you say 
                Am 
It's not your laughter 

That gives you away 
              F 
You're just lonely 
             G          C 
You've been lonely, too long
[Strophe]
C                      G     C 
Oh, you're acting your thin disguise 
            Am 
All your perfectly delivered lines 
             F 
They don't fool me 
            G           C 
You've been lonely, too long
[Refrain]
             F 
Let me in the wall 
             C 
You've built around 
             G 
We can light a match 
            Am 
And burn it down 
                F 
Let me hold your hand 
                              C 
And dance 'round and 'round the flames 
           G 
In front of us 
 
Dust to dust
[Strophe]
C 
You've held your head up 
        G          C 
You've fought the fight 
          Am 
You bear the scars 
 
You've done your time 
         F 
Listen to me  
             G           C 
You've been lonely, too long
[Refrain]
            F 
Let me in the wall 
             C 
You've built around 
             G 
We can light a match 
            Am 
And burn it down 
               F 
Let me hold your hand 
                              C 
And dance 'round and 'round the flames 
           G 
In front of us 
 
Dust to dust

[Outro]
C                      G         C 
You're like a mirror, reflecting me 
                 Am 
Takes one to know one, so take it from me 
          F 
You've been lonely 
           G           C 
You've been lonely, too long 
G        F 
We've been lonely 
           G           C 
We've been lonely, too long
