Lonely Feeling Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]It'[Em]s a l[C]on[F]g st[G]re[C]tch[F][C]
of highway at [F]midnight in New Mexico
[C]It'[F]s a small [C]colored light that
[F]shines from your car radi[G]o
It's [F]the old motel owner
who sleep[C]s on a cot
And [F]gives you the very last
[G]cup from his pot

[Verse 2]
[C]It's a lonely [F]feeling,
it's what [C]you've got[F]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling, [G]like it or not
[C]

[Verse 3]
[F]
It's the [C]crack in the sidewalk right
[F]next to a pay tele[C]phone[F]
It's [C]someone's recorder when you're
[F]hopin' that someone is [G]home
It's an [F]hour to kill to do [C]what [F]you [C]please
But [F]nobody's up for just
[G]shootin' the breeze

[Verse 4]
[C]It's a lonely [F]feeling,
it's like a dis[C]ease[F]
It's a [C]lonely feel[F]ing,
[G]you pray that it leaves
[C]

[Verse 5]
[F]
It's [C]three men from Chile [F]who are tired
and they want to go [C]home[F]
They've run [C]out of money and they're
[F]stuck up in east Ore[G]gon
So you [F]give 'em the small
[C]bit of change in your hand
You [F]try to speak Spanish but they
[G]don't understand

[Verse 6]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling, it gets to [C]a man[F]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling,
[G]that runs through the land
[C]

[Verse 7]
[F]
It's your [C]best friend from high school who
[F]sees you and wishes [C]you well[F]
You try [C]to breakthrough but you
[F]run out of stories to [G]tell
So you [F]bid him goodbye
[C]and you step into space
There are [F]so many questions
that [G]you cannot face

[Verse 8]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling, taking [C]his place[F]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling, you [G]just can't erase

[Verse 9]
It's a [C]statue of Jesus your
[F]grandmother had when [C]she died[F]
All [C]cracked and all yellow and you
[F]know you should throw it [G]aside
But you're [F]growin' religious,
the [C]older you get
You [F]haven't been saved
but it [G]could happen yet

[Verse 10]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling, full of re[C]gret[F]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling,
won't [G]let you for[C]get[F]

[Verse 11]
It's [C]a bus stop, a street cop,
[F]an old dog, the new kid, a [C]bum[F]
It's [C]fright and rejected,
neg[F]lected and blind, deaf [G]and dumb
But you look [F]in the mirror
and you're [C]still hanging in
It's [F]there to remind you how
[G]lucky you've been

[Verse 12]
It's a [C]lonely [F]feeling, now [C]and again[F]
It's [C]only a feel[F]ing [G]that comes now and [C]then
