[Verse 1]
G Em C
It’s getting me down waiting up for you
G Em C
Cause I could’ve just as easily left by now
G
What makes me return is
Em C
What I need you to do
G Em D
But something you gave me just made me feel almighty
G
sweet release
[Chorus]
D G C
You were the only rudder that I had
D G C
That embarrassing waste of hours we would spend
D B7 C
And you’re always where you said you’d be my friend
Em
When I was lonely on the weekend
D G
Lonely on the weekend
[Verse 2]
G Em C
It’s something to see how beauty can scare you
G Em C
That never ending neon mess of lights
G Em C
Silent and dreamless holding on like I do
G Em
When what I prepared doesn’t get me anywhere
D G
That I like here to be
[Chorus]
D G C
You were the only rudder that I had
D G C
That embarrassing waste of hours we would spend
D B7 C
And you’re always where you said you’d be my friend
Em
When I was lonely on the weekend
D G
Lonely on the weekend
Em
When I was lonely on the weekend
D G
Lonely on the weekend

[Verse 3]
G Em C
Sleeping you off suddenly strangers
G Em C
Running out after using you each time
G Em C
Ignoring the pace of the fear I’d be through
G Em
Of what I partake doesn’t make this any crime
D G
in my eyes in the least
[Chorus]
D G C
You were the only rudder that I had
D G C
That embarrassing waste of hours we would spend
D B7 C
And you’re always where you said you’d be my friend
Em
When I was lonely on the weekend
D G
Lonely on the weekend
[Outro]
Em
When I was lonely on the weekend
D G
on the weekend
Em
When I was lonely on the weekend
D G
on the weekend
