-INTRO-
Am   G   Dm   F   Am
                   Why?

G        Dm        F     E
   Why?      Why?

N.C.
There you are in a darkened room. And you’re all

                             Am
alone looking out the window. Your heart is cold

        G                Dm9       F        E   F
and lost the will to love-- like a broken arrow.

                           C  F
Here I stand in the shadows.   Come to me, Come

                     G      Am
to me Can’t you see that,

            G            Dm9           F      Am
Nobody wants to be lonely. nobody wants to cry.

             G              Dm9              F
My body’s longing to hold you so bad it hurts

      C5                          G/B
inside. Time is precious and it’s slipping away

              Dm                        F
and I’ve been waiting for you all of my life.

Am          G                 Dm9 C/E F
Nobody wants to be lonely, so why,--- why don’t

               Am           G       Dm7     F
you let me love you? (Why?)  (Why?)  (Why?)

E       Am                    G
Can you hear my voice? Do you hear my song? It’s

  Fmaj7            G                      Am
a serenade so your heart can find me, ooh.  And

                  G                   F     E
suddenly you’re flying down the stairs into my

                F                         C  F
arms baby, ooh. Before i start going crazy   run

                             G
to me, run to me cause I’m dying.

            G            Dm9           F      Am
Nobody wants to be lonely. nobody wants to cry.

             G              Dm9              F
My body’s longing to hold you so bad it hurts

      C5                          G/B
inside. Time is precious and it’s slipping away

              Dm                        F
and I’ve been waiting for you all of my life.

Am          G                 Dm9     C/E
Nobody wants to be lonely, so why, why----

       C/E                                 Am
near me just like the air you’re breathing.  I 

                                Gsus
need you here in my life. Don’t walk away. Don’t

                 G                        Fmaj7
walk away. Don’t walk away, walk away no, no. 

                          Dm9          F
Nobody wants to be lonely. Nobody wants to cry.

Am           G             Dm9          F     
 Nobody wants to be lonely. Nobody wants to cry.

Am            G              Dm9              F
 My body’s longing to hold you so bad it hurts

       C5                         G/B
inside. Time is precious and it’s slipping away

              Dm                       F
and I’ve been waiting for you all of my life.

Am           G                 Dm9      C/E
 Nobody wants to be lonely, so why, why--- 

F                        Am
