1. There is no good reason I should have to be so alone,

             Am                      G                           F                              C

    I'm smothered by this emptiness, Lord, I wish I was made of stone.

                                      E                           F                          C

    Like a fool I lent my soul to love, and it paid me back in change,

    God help me, am I the only one who's ever felt this way.

2. A heart that's worn and weathered would know better than to fight,

             Am                       G                      F                     C

    but I wore mine like a weapon, played out love like a crime.

                                             E                             F                           C

 And it wrung me out and strung me out, and it hung years on my face,

      F     C                F        G                      F                    C

    God help me, am I the only  one who's ever felt this way.

and she's laughin' through her tears, one more smile's all I can fake.

3. There is a wound inside me, and it's bleeding like a flood,
