        C 
You ran crying to the bedroom  
                 F 
I ran off to the bar, 
G                               C 
Another piece of heaven gone to hell, 
                                                F 
The words we spoke in anger just tore my world apart, 
      G                              C 
And I sat there feeling sorry for my self. 

              C 
Then that old man sat down beside me 
                     F 
And looked me in the eye, 
         G                              C 
And said "Son, I know what you're going through, 

You ought to get down on your knees 
                     F      G                              C  
And thank your lucky stars that you got someone to go home to." 
            C          F 
  You don't know about lonely, 
              C 
  Or how long nights can be, 
                             G 
  Till you lived through the story  
                         C 
  That's still living in me, 
                C          F 
  And you don't know about sadness 
                       C 
  'Til you faced life alone, 
                       G 
  You don't know about lonely 
                        C 
  'Til it's chiseled in stone. 
      
     C 
So I brought these pretty flowers 
                     F 
Hoping you would understand 
G                         C 
Sometimes a man is such a fool, 

Those golden words of wisdom 
                           F                            
From the heart of that old man, 
G                                 C 
Showed me I ain't nothing without you. 
            C          F 
  You don't know about lonely 
              C 
  Or how long nights can be 
                              G 
  'Till you lived through the story 
                         C     
  That old man just told me 
            C          F 
  You don't know about sadness 
                        C 
  'Till you faced life alone 
                       G 
  You don't know about lonely 
                         C
