[Intro]
C G Em D
C G Em D
[Verse]
C G Em
Say the stars just ain't aligned
D C
For a Taurus and a Gemini
G Em
You got some things you need to focus on
D C
You need the space to do it on your own
G Em
Tell your mama and your girlfriends
D C
You're not certain I'm your person
G Em
Find a reason why you wanna break it
D C
But it really ain't complicated, no
[Chorus]
G
I think that you were born lonely
Em D C
You wanna fall in love but you don't know how
G
Hold back 'cause you think it's only
Em D C
Just a matter of time 'fore it all goes south
G
Heartbreak hurts worse than goodbye
Em D C
And that's why you do what you always do
G
I think that you were born lonely
Em D C G Em D
And I know 'cause I was born lonely too
[Verse]
C G Em
My mom and dad must have had their reasons
D C
To put a time zone in between 'em
G Em
I've seen my share of tail lights
D C
Swear my first words were goodbye
G Em
A little too good at lettin' go
D C
Does that sound like anyone you know?
[Chorus]
G
I think that you were born lonely
Em D C
You wanna fall in love but you don't know how
G
Hold back 'cause you think it's only
Em D C
Just a matter of time 'fore it all goes south
G
Heartbreak hurts worse than goodbye
Em D C
And that's why you do what you always do
G
I think that you were born lonely
Em D C G Em
And I know 'cause I was born lonely too
D C
I was born lonely too
[Break]
G Em
And I was 'til I met you
D C
So girl run if you gotta run
G
Before you go just know
Em D C
You deserve love as much as anyone-one
[Chorus]
G
Even if you were born lonely
Em D C
You wanna fall in love but you don't know how
G
Hold back 'cause you think it's only
Em D C
Just a matter of time 'fore it all goes south
G
Heartbreak hurts worse than goodbye
Em D C
And that's why you do what you always do
G
I think that you were born lonely
Em D C G
And I know 'cause I was born lonely too
[Outro]
Em D
We don't have to be lonely
C G
We don't have to be lonely
Em D C
We don't have to be lonely
