D          A              G    G
  I came into this lovely city 

D             A           G    G
  about three weeks ago today,

              D                  A              G       G
and I've been trying to find someone that I can talk to, 

D            A               G    G
  a friendly face to turn my way.

D              A                 G      G
  I walk these streets in silent sorrow, 

D           A             G      G
  I walk my feet into the ground,

          D               A                G      G
and all I see are cloudy, cold, suspicious faces, 

D            A                G      G
  I swear to God it brings me down.

         D             A
Is there no one with a smile for me, 

G             G              D     A    G    G
no one with a hello in their eyes?

         D               A
Is there no one who will love me 

    G                   G               D      A    G    G
and help me through the dark and lonely night?

D               A                  G       G
  The park's so green and full of flowers 

D            A            G      G
  and lovers lying on the lawn.

         D          A                 G          G
I wish I had a lady here that I could laugh with, 

            D                   A         G      G
sweet Jesus Christ, it hurts me so to be alone.

         D             A
Is there no one with a smile for me, 

G             G              D     A    G    G
no one with a hello in their eyes?

         D               A
Is there no one who will love me 

    G                   G               D      A    G    G
and help me through the cold and lonely night?

        D     A            G    G
Singing la la la la la la,

        D     A            G    G 
Singing la la la la la la.

D              A                G        G
  This life is hard and full of trouble, 

D                      A                G      G
  it's painful just to live from day to day.

              D          A                 G        G
But if you're weary and afraid don't turn away now,

           D             A                 G      G
there's no reason why we have to feel this way.

         D             A
Is there no one with a smile for me, 

G             G              D     A    G    G
no one with a hello in their eyes?

         D               A
Is there no one who will love me 

    G                   G               D      A    G    G
and help me through the dark and lonely night?

        D     A            G    G
Singing la la la la la la,

        D     A            G    
Singing la la la la la la.

       G               D        A    G

   G            D     A    G
It hurts to be alone.

       G               D           A    G
I just need someone to laugh with. 

   G            D     A    G
It hurts to be alone.

       G               D        A    G
I just want someone to love me. 

  G               D       A    G
I need someone to talk to. 

       G            D     A    G    G
And it hurts to be alone.

        D     A            G    G
Singing la la la la la la,

        D     A            G    G 
Singing la la la la la la.
