SOMETIMES THE LONELY WAY - They Might Be Giants
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
[VERSE]
Not everyone you ve abandoned is still standing by
Not everyone who is lost is wondering why
[CHORUS]
Sometimes a lonely way
Taking your name down from the jumbotron
Find a new place to stay
And a new home for the trumpeter swan
[VERSE]
We can see it now, the scratches on the back of the door
We can see it now, no mistaking what you re better for
[CHORUS]
Sometimes a lonely way
Taken alive in an uncivil war
Trophies and glass displays
Rehearsals for third place, forever more
[BRIDGE]
Bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah
[VERSE]
Not everyone you ve abandoned is still standing by
Not everyone who is lost is wondering why
[CHORUS]
Sometimes a lonely way
Taking your name down from the jumbotron
Find a new place to stay
And a new home for the trumpeter swan
