Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Wel[D]l, [Em]you [D]heard abou[G]t the time[A]
I climbed the Empire [D]State [A]Building
An[D]d you h[G]eard about the t[A]ime
I was in the in[D]sane asylum

[Verse 2]
But [G]I bet you never [C]knew
[G]What [C]I h[G]ad to do
And [C]what I went through
Just [D]to bring you a lonely
[G]song
[C][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Well, I try to do what's [A]right
Every day and every [D]night
And when [G]I think I've won the [A]fight
The monster comes [D]back again

[Verse 4]
And I [G]bet you never [C]knew
[G]What I went [C]through
And [G]what I had to [C]do
Just to [D]bring you a lonely song
[G][C][G]

[Verse 5]
If you [C]listen very hard
You can hear the [G]despera[C]tion of
[G]a sad [C]and bro[D]ken hea[G]rt
[D]My heart

[Verse 6]
[D]
Well, you [G]heard about the [A]time
But not all of it is [D]true
And you've [G]read [A]the magazines[D]
I've been [A]wounded by [D]folklore

[Verse 7]
But I [G]bet you never [C]knew
[G]What I went [C]through
And [G]what I had to [F]do
[C]Just to [D]bring you a lonely [G]song
[C][G][D]

[Verse 8]
Well, I'll [G]tell you right [A]now
Just to set the record [D]straight
I [G]never meant no [A]harm
Or to generate so much [D]hate

[Verse 9]
But I [G]bet you never [C]knew
[G]What I went [C]through
And [G]what I had to [C]do
Just to [D]bring you a lonely [G]song
[C][G]
