As recorded by Todd Snider (2025 release) [Intro] E A E A D A E A E D A E A D A E A E A E [Chorus]
A   E A            D
High, lonesome and then some

     A    E     A        E
What might have been was always meant to be

A   E A            D
High, lonesome and then some

                  A       E                        A E A
Still looking for someone looking for someone like me
[Verse 1]
E       A      E     A        D   A   D      A
All she wanted me to be was a halfway decent person

     E          A               E
But I had always been afraid of change

     A                         D         A         D
So I lied thru my teeth and of course it worked at first

    A
But then it just got worse and worse

    E                  A         E
And now we’re totally estranged
[Chorus]
A   E A            D
High, lonesome and then some

     A    E     A        E
What might have been was always meant to be

A   E A            D
High, lonesome and then some

                  A       E                        A E A
Still looking for someone looking for someone like me
[Verse 2]
E       A    E      A                  D
All I’d ever ask of you would be to forgive me

           A E       A    E
Again every  now and then nearly everyday

          A      E     A       E    D      A   D
At least I won’t be pretending I am trying to amend them

       A        E      A     E                 A  E
When I know I’m always going my own separating way
[Chorus]
A                  D
High, lonesome and then some

     A    E     A        E
What might have been was always meant to be

A                  D
High, lonesome and then some

                  A       E                        A E A E
Still looking for someone looking for someone like me
[Guitar Solo] A D A E A D A E A [Out-Chorus]
A                  D
High, lonesome and then some

     A                         E
What might have been was always meant to be

A                  D
High, lonesome and then some

                  A       E                        A
Still looking for someone looking for someone like me

E           A       E                        A
Looking for someone looking for someone like me

                            E                A
Looking for someone looking for someone like me
