Capo 1st   
Intro:  D   

(D)You went crying to the bedroom   
                       
I ran off to the (G)bar   
                                                 
(A)Another piece of heaven gone to (D)hell   
   
The words we spoke in anger   
                                 
Just tore my world (G)apart   
                                              
(A)And I sat there feeling sorry for (D)myself   

   
(D)Then an old man sat down beside me   
                                   
And looked me in the (G)eye   
                                                          
(A)Said, son I know what your going (D)through   
   
You ought a get down on your knees   
                                           
And thank your lucky (G)stars   
                                                       
That you got someone to go home (D)to

CHORUS:  
                               
(D) You don't (D7)know about (G)lonely   
                              
Or how long the nights can (D)be   
                                   
Till you've lived through the (A)stories   
                            
That still live in (D)me   
                                
You don't (D7)know about (G)sadness   
                                  
Till you've faced life (D)alone   
                                      
You don't know about (A)lonely   
                                
Till it's chiseled in (D)stone 

   
(D)So I brought these pretty flowers   
                                      
Hoping you would under(G)stand   
                                            
(A)Sometimes a man is such a (D)fool   
   
Those golden words of wisdom   
                                                                            
From the heart of that old (G)man   
                                                       
Showed me I ain't nothing without (D)you

Or how long the nights can (D)be   
                                  
Till you've lived through the (A)stories   
                                   
That old man just told (D)me   

And you don't (D7)know about (G)sadness   
                          
Till you faced life (D)alone
