[Intro]
Am E F E
[Verse 1]
EOnly buy this if you're lAmonely
Only Flisten if you're Eblue
If you're married and you are Amhappy
This song is nFot to do with Eyou
If you Amlistening at your work place
Feeling Fsmall amongst the Emen
Do not Amsing this to your workmates
This Fsong is not to Edo witAmh them
[Chorus]
But if you're Esitting on a Ambar stool
EWondering what on earth to Amdo
FDon't let them tell you no-one cares
EThis song's one especially for you
[Verse 2]
EIf you are listening on your rAmadio
Smiling wFhile you drive aElong
Tune the band into anAmother
Because this Fsong is not your Esong
If you're Amworking as DJ
Leave this Frecord in its Esleeve
Cause this Amone's not for general airplay
This Fsong is for Eday she Amleaves
[Chorus]
And if you bEought this and you're Amsinking
EAnd I think that you know Amwho
It Fmatters not the mouth that's singing
EThis song's one especially for you
[Bridge]
So this Amgoes out to the lonely
So this Amgoes out to the sad
And it Dmgoes out to the only 
One you Efelt you ever Amhad
If you're Amthere in total darkness 
With a Amletter in your hand
Do not Dmbother with the letter
Just Amlisten to the band
[Instrumental]
Am E F E
*Over Horns*
Am       Dm   Em Am
Am       Dm   Em Am
So only buy this if you're Amlonely...
