What will you do when you get lone-ly? 
 -1  -3 -3 -3   3  -2  -2   3   -2
with no-bod-y wait-ing by your side? 
  3     3    3   3 
You've been run-ning 
 3  -3  -3   -3   3  3 -1
and hid-ing much too long. 
-1    3    3   3    3   -3 3 -2   -2  
You know it's just your fool-ish pride.

-2*-2*  3*  -1*
my wor-ried mind. 

 -3   -3  -3  -3   3  -2  3  -3
Tried to give you con-so-la-tion, 
 -3  -3   3   -2   -2   3   -2
your old man won't let you down. 
  3  3   3   3  -3  -3  -3    3  3-1
Like a fool, I fell in love with you, 
 -1 3   3    3     3  -33  -2   -2
turned the whole world up-side down.

my wor-ried mind.

Let's make the best of the sit-u-a-tion, 
-1  -3 -3 -3  3  -2 -2 3   -2
be-fore I fi-nal-ly go in-sane. 
   3     3    3    3   -3  -3  -3  3 3-1
Please don't say we'll nev-er find a way. 
-1    3  3   3  3  -3 3   -2  -2
and tell me all my love's in vain.

Lay- la, Dar-ling won't you ease
