So Lonely

According to the booklet accompanying the Hollies' 30th Anniversary set,

this (the B-side to 'Look Through Any Window') is a rewrite of the first

song Graham Nash and Allan Clarke wrote together. Maybe that's why it's

so inconsistent about who 'you' refers to - the ex-girlfriend's new lover

in the 1st and 3rd verses vs. the ex-girlfriend herself in the chorus, 2nd

verse, and bridge. It's one of my Hollies faveraves anyway.

(every time...)

Every time I see you walking down the street with my girl

I get a funny feeling when I see you out with my girl

I get so lonely

I get so lonely without you

I get lonely for you

Verse 2:

See you everyday and now I realize you're not mine

I know I just can't think of anything to do with my time

Chorus 2:

'Cause I'm so lonely

I get so lonely without you

Waiting (oh I'm waiting, oh I'm waiting)

Oh, I'm waiting (oh I'm waiting, yes I'm waiting)

Waiting (Oh I'm waiting, yes I'm waiting)

For your loving

G* F#m

To keep me satisfied forever

G* F#m A

To keep me satisfied forever

(* vocal harmonies imply Gmaj7)

Verse 3:

If you get tired of her, just send her right on back to my arms

And then we'll start anew and know that we never will part

Chorus 3:

I get so lonely

I get so lonely without you
