Lonely Town

[Verse 1]
         G7
He's the mayor of Lonely Town,
population: one
Am7
   Population: one
D7
Staring a hole in the ground,
                  G7   F
staring at the sun  Oh,
    E7
woah
        Am7                   D7
And I'm starting to feel like he might be real
          Bm                      E7
Like he's something I might become
            Am7
Running for mayor of Lonely Town,
D7               G7
  population: one

[Verse 2]
D7        G7
  See the mayor of Lonely Town standing in the square
Am7
   At the county fair
D7
Shouting his message out,
                   G7   F
but there's no one there
         E7
Oh, there
        Am7                        D7
And the silence surrounds but he's lost in the sound
         Bm                     E7
Of their army of fifes and drums
             Am7
Marching for mayor of Lonely Town,
D7               G7
  population: one
D7
  Sha, bada, bada, bada, bada

[Bridge]
   G7                    A7
If you want to go to Lonely Town
C                 G7
 Just pay the fare
Ba ba da, da ba da, da ba da
                                   A7
Unless you're with me, then you'll get in for free, 'cause,
baby
  D7         G7
I know the mayor Da da doh
B7

[Interlude]
Em          D#aug       G/D      G(b5)/Db Cm6              G B7
No one seems     to want   to be near;    they all run away
    Em
But deep inside,
D#aug      G/D        G(b5)/Db Am7                  D7 D#dim/C D7/B
     a song   you can hear,    calling out your name

[Verse 3]
D7/A     G7
Well the mayor of Lonely Town,
tucking into bed
    Am7
Ohoh
What's inside his head?
D7
Visions of sugarplums and loneliness
G7 F   E7
Oh, yes
          Am7                D7
Now we've all got to be what we want to be
         Bm                        E7
But that does not seem quite so fun
          Am7
To be the mayor of Lonely Town,
D7
  population
    Am7
Staring a hole in the ground,
D7
  population
  Am7                D7               Em D#aug
Mayor of Lonely Town,  population: One
