G#m B It's a long way to nowhere And I'm leaving very soon On the way we pass so close To the back side of the moon Hey, join the traveler If you've got nowhere to go Hang your head and take my hand It's the only road I know Chorus: C#m D#m G#m Oh, lonely is the word, yeah yeah yeah I've been higher than stardust I've been seen upon the sun I used to count in millions then But now I only count in one C'mon, join the traveler If you've got nowhere to go Hang your head and take my hand It's the only road I know Chorus: Yeah, lonely is the word Got to be the saddest song I've ever heard Yeah, lonely is the name Maybe life's a losing game You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC#m  D#m  G#m  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
