                        Bm
I was not ready for the road

D                      A                     D  A
I was so discontent to wear that heavy load

                        Bm
And so I got down on my knees

E
I made a sucker's prayer

E                               A
A grim bode of Baudelaire before
[Verse 2]
                        Bm
And when nobody did respond

D                         A                  D  A
I took my glasses off and went to find a pond

                        Bm
Stuffing rocks into the pockets of my pants

E
And when I waded in

E                              A
Those currents carried them away
[Chorus]
                                       D
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how

E                                         Bm  A  D  A
I've been so long lonely and it's getting me down

                                       D
I wanna throw my body in the river and drown

E                                      A  D  A
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
[Verse 3]
                            Bm
So if you're lost along the way

D                                A                 D  A
And if you're thinking that will always be the case

                       Bm
Won't you listen to my plea?

E
You'll make a sucker's prayer

E                             A
Just go and leave it that-a-way
[Chorus]
                                       D
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how

E                                         Bm  A  D  A
I've been so long lonely and it's getting me down

                                       D
I wanna throw my body in the river and drown

E                                      A  D  A
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
