 Note: The final D and A are only played half a measure throughout the song
It  was a lonely holiday
 I was alone -- you were away
 In Fayetteville or in another state
 There's so many  towns I hate
 When you leave me, it breaks me like a bone
 But it's never as bad as when you come home
 Thought so much about suicide
 Parts of me  have already died...
Lonely  -- baby I'm not lonely
 Baby I'm not -- I've  got my imaginary friends
Happy  -- baby I'm so happy
 Baby I'm so -- I've  got my imaginary friends
 And if you don't love  me, would you please pretend?
It  was a lonely holiday
 I was alone -- I was afraid
 The bedroom walls were closing in
 It must be closing  time again
 When you leave me, it breaks me like the note
 That you said got stuck in your throat
 Thought so much about suicide
 Parts of me  have already died...
