[Intro] Dm  F  C  G

Dm                          F
 I wanna meet a friend in a bar tonight
               C                   G
The evening is long so long I hardly move
Dm                F
 A can in my hand  a picture in my mind
C                       G
 A voice I need to hear   a laugh I need to show
Dm              F
 We're lonely, babe
      C        G
 In a boat, again

Dm                                 F
 I need to see a friend tonight or see the people in a bar
C                       G
 I wish they could not see me at all
Dm            F                    C          G
 How I wish I could describe their pain or my pain

( Dm  F  C  G )

Dm               F
The mystic light, the choir of smoke
C                  C
The smell of wood, the pose, the joke
Dm                     F
The dirty little world inside
                   C
That needs to come out
              G
Needs to come out

Dm                          F
 I wanna meet a friend in a bar tonight
              C       G
The evening is looooo-oong
Dm         F
 If only I had that strength
C                   G                Dm
 To see those people all so lonely as me

( F  C  G )
( Dm  F  C  G )

      Dm
All so lonely
       F       C    G
All so lonely as me
