Intro

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
