[Verse 1]
C Am
Every time that I hear your name called
D7 G
I turn to look even though I know you're gone
C Am
Just like a dream you can't fall back into
D7 G
A premonition that won't come true
[Chorus]
Em Am
Lonely, all alone I sit
D* G
I've made a mess of all of it
Em Am
Oh well, I don't mind
D* G
I've got the time
[Bridge]

[Verse 2]
C Am
More and more now I think I'm fading
D7 G
Some days you can see me through the walls
C Am
I feel you near me in the strangest places
D7 G
The hospital and the clinic halls
[Chorus]
Em Am
Lonely, all alone I sit
D* G
I've made a mess of all of it
Em Am
Oh well, I don't mind
D* G
I've got the time
