Standard (EADGBE)

Lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely,

 I have nobody for my own.

 I'm so lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely,

 wish I had someone to call on the phone.

 I'm a soldier, a lonely soldier,

 Away from home through no wish of my own.

 That's why I'm lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely,

 I wish that I could go back home.

Letters, never a letter,

 I get no letters in the mail.

 I've been forgotten, yeah, forgotten,

 Oh how I wonder how is it I failed.

 I'm a soldier, a lonely soldier,

 Away from home through no wish of my own.

 That's why I'm lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely,

 I wish that I could go back home.
