Am
Every evening when the sun goes down I sit here in my room
Am
And the lamplight streaming over me projects my lonely gloom
C F E
My counterpart in agony mocks each tear that falls
Am
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
Am E Am
He's always by my side at night no matter where I go
Am E Am
He lurks out in the darkness or in the neon's glow
E
He follows me across the steps and up and down the hall
Am
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
Am E Am
I sit and watch the candle and the flicker of the flame
Am
My writhing shadow twists and turns as though it is in pain
C F E
I'm trying to escape the memory my mind recalls
Am
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
Am E Am
The image of a love I lost and all the things I'd planned
Am E Am
Are as empty as this bottle that I hold in my hand
C F E
My soul is buried in the depths of love and life's pitfalls
Am
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
Am E Am
I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
