      Rab Noakes - Lonely Boy Tonight


CAPO: 2nd Fret



[INTRO:] C  Em  Dm  Am  Dm7    G

[VERSE 1:]
     C                    Em
When all these things you shouldn't have said
     Dm                       Am
Come curling and swirling all through your head
        Dm7                                 G
And you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight


[VERSE 2:]
            C                        Em
And there's all the things you never learned how to feel
         Dm                    Am
You were going out fishing without a reel
        Dm7                                 G
And you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight


[VERSE 3:]
    Em
And you're here hoping she'll come back
        Dm                    Am
But you know you let the line run too slack
    Dm                                 G
And you don't know how far away she'll go___
           Em
And you're left here wondering where she can be
           Dm                  Am
And you're torn in two by your jealousy
       Dm                                     G
You're all wound up about things you'll never know___


[VERSE 4:]
    C                    Em
And so you say that it's only a game
            Dm          Am
But there's no escaping all of that flame
        Dm7                                 G
And you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight


[INSTRUMENTAL:] C  Em  Dm  Am  Dm7    G    C  Em  Dm  Am  Dm7    G


[VERSE 5:]
     C                    Em
Then all these things you shouldn't have said
     Dm                       Am
Come twirling and curling all through your head
        Dm7                                 G
And you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight


[VERSE 6:]
        Em
And the house is big and empty now
          Dm                    Am
You can't find anything and you don't know how
   Dm                                    G
To cook for yourself, so you just have a drink___
         Em
Well, it don't help much, if it helps at all
       Dm                   Am
If you had her number you'd try to call
    Dm                                    G
But all you can do is sit down and try to think___


[VERSE 7:]
    C                Em
But oh, what does it matter anyway
        Dm                  Am
You can always find another any old day
        Dm7                                 G
But you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight


[INSTRUMENTAL:] C  Em  Dm  Am  Dm7    G    C  Em  Dm  Am  Dm7    G


[VERSE 8:]   (## fade to end ##)
     C                    Em
When all these things you shouldn't have said
     Dm                       Am
Come curling and swirling all through your head
        Dm7                                 G
And you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight
             Dm7                                 G
Hmm hmm, you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight
                Dm7                                 G
Ahmhm hmhm, you know you're gonna be a lonely boy tonight
