Intro G F#m Bm
G F#m
Everybody knows my name now
Bm
But something about it still feels strange
Like looking in the mirror trying to steady yourself
And seeing somebody else
G F#m
And everything is not the same now
Bm
Feels like all the lives I've changed
Maybe when I'm older it'll all calm down
But it's killing me now
G A
What if you had it all
F#m
But nobody to call?
G
Maybe then you'd know me
G A
'Cause I've had everything
F#m
But no one's listening
G
And that's just fucking lonely
G A
I'm so lonely
F#m G
Lonely
G F#m
Everybody knows my past now
Bm
Like my house was always made of glass
And maybe that's the price you pay
For the money and fame
At an early age
G F#m
And everybody saw me sick
Bm
And it felt like no one gave a shit
They criticize the things I did
As an idiot kid
G A
What if you had it all
F#m
But nobody to call?
G
Maybe then you'd know me
G A
'Cause I've had everything
F#m
But no one's listening
G
And that's just fucking lonely
G A
I'm so lonely
F#m G
Lonely
G A
I'm so lonely
F#m G
Lonely
