INTRO: G/C/G/C/G
 C  G      C     G    C     G    /C/G/C
 You laugh at the people who walk outside on the sidewalk
     G      C    G
 And you talk to yourself so much
           C       G     /C/G
 when you see other people you can't talk
        Am
 This time it's true
 D7 G     G   /C/G7
 The charade is through
   Bm               C /D7
 And you can't seem to run away from you
 Away from you
     Am               D7
 And the haggard ex-lover of a long-time loser
      G    C   G
 Stands rejectedly by the door
 C    G   Em      Am
 Doesn't Lenny live here anymore?
     D7
 Are you sure?
 
 You sit at the desk
 To lose your life in a letter
 But the words don't seem to come and you know that they're(?) better
 and it's all so strange
 Pictures lose their frame
 And I'll bet you never guessed
 There was so much pain
 So much pain
 Until the haggard ex-lover of a long-time loser
 Stands rejectedly by the door
 Doesn't Lenny live here anymore?
 Are you sure?
 
 The moon, she shines too soon and simply sadly
 You loved your love so much that you'd strangle her madly
 And it's all so slow
 Time has ceased to flow
 And the whistling xxxxx knows something you don't know
 And the haggard ex-lover of a long-time loser
 Stands rejectedly by the door
 Doesn't Lenny live here anymore?
 Are you sure?
 
 You swore you'd store your love for one time only
 Now you searched the books in vain for better word for lonely
 And you're torn apart
 No other love will start
 And you, you'd like to steal a happy heart
 A happy heart
 Then the haggard ex-lover of a long-time loser
 Stands rejectedly by the door
 Doesn't Lenny live here anymore?
 Are you sure?
 
 The fat official smiles at the pass on the border
 And the hungry broom makes sure that the room is in order
 You pull the shade
 All the beds are made
 As your lips caress the razor of the blade
 Of the blade
 And the haggard ex-lover of a long-time loser
 Stands rejectedly by the door
 Doesn't Lenny live here anymore?
 Are you sure?
 
 The soul of the sun shines just outsde of the winter
 The shoulders charged, the boards of the barricade is splintered
 Now at last alone
 The flashlight is shown
 Hello inside is there anybody home?
 Anybody home?
 It's the haggard ex-lover of a long-time loser
 Standing rejectedly by the door
 Doesn't Lenny live here anymore?
 Are you sure?
 Are you sure?
 Are you sure?
