E A
Neighbors knockin' on my wall
 
Times were hard I don't wanna knock it
E A
I don't miss it much at all
 
 
CHORUS
D A E A D A E
Oh yeah I'm alright I just feel a little lonely tonight
D A E A D A E A
I'm okay most of the time I just feel a little lonely tonight
 
 
I used to need your love so badly
Then I came to live with it
Lately I get a faraway feeling
And the whole thing starts again
 
 
(CHORUS and 2nd verse)
