NOTE - I'm posting 2 different ways to play this song. Personally, I feel the
first way sounds nicer but playing it the second way is for those who are too lazy
to tune down ;) Enjoy and let me know what you think!
TUNING -
Can be played: 1] Tuned down half a step [D# G# C# F# A# d#] or
2] Standard Tuning on Capo 2

Intro - G C G D Em C G D
Standing in an empty room,
Where the cobwebs dont remember you.
Let me in and I wont bother you again.
You're a memory from a former life,
That outright rufused to fade,
Let me in and I wont bother you again
I'm lonely lonely lonely in a room full of my friends
Let me in and I wont bother you again
Counting as the minutes pass
I'm still looking at the looking glass
and how long, how long, how long can I keep this up for
and God forbid if he doesn't exist
oh we'll go on with what we came in with
and how long, how long can I keep this up for
I'm lonely lonely lonely in a house that I have loved in
How long, how long, how long can I keep this up for?
How long can I keep this up for?
How long can I keep this up for?
How long, how long, how long can I keep this up for?
How long can I keep this up for?
How long can I keep this up for?
Outro - Em C G D Em C G
