A
Oh, another day, another sunset
                 Bm
The walls watch my thighs intertwine
         E
for the second-teenth time
     D      E                   A
Oh, lonely bones, have you forgotten?

Add another glass to the stale row
The authors look down as I shrug
With their capital smug
Oh, lonely bones, have you forgotten?

Chorus:
         Bm         E
In the grand scheme,
(tell her it won't really matter)
            C#m    F#
I've got a plan see
(better it won't really end)
        Dmaj7        E7
Ohh-ohh-ohh, lonely bones...
      A
Wait for me

Over the bridge to midnight
Friends sleep obliviously thick
Something's making me sick
Oh, lonely bones, have you forgotten?

Add another night to the stale row
Seem to be dangerously close
Might abandon the host
Oh, lonely bones, have you forgotten?

Chorus

La la-la-la (clap-clap)
E7
La la-la-la
 D      E                  A
Lonely bones, have you forgotten?

Oh, in the grand scheme
I've got a plan, see
Ooh-ooh-ooh, lonely bones
