Biography:
The Replacements are an alternative rock group that formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1979.

They become one of the leaders of the early alt-folk set and one of the flagship bands of the American 80s post-punk scene, being as well a major influence on 90s indie rock.

If Only You Were Lonely
The Replacements
[Intro]
C D G C G D7
[Verse 1]
G
I walked out of work
G7
and I was tired as hell
C A7
Another day come and gone oh well
G D
And somewhere there's a drink
G D7
with my name on it
G
Well I ordered a scotch
G7
as I bust through them doors
C
Spilled half on my jeans
A7
the other half on the floor
G D
When I saw you standing by
G D7
that video game
G
Well I ain't very good
G7
but I get practice by myself
C
forgot my one-lines
A7
so I just said what I felt
[Chorus]
G D C Bm
If only you were lonely
G D C Bm
If only you was lonely, too
G D C
If only you were lonely
G D7
I'd go home with you
[Verse 2]
G
Twenty push-ups this morning
G7
that was half of my goal
C
Tonight I'll be doin' pullups
A7
on the toilet bowl
G D
And somewhere there's somebody
G D7
A-throwin' up
G
Well I broke the seal on my door
G7
And I poured myself to bed
C A7
A whirlpool spinnin' around in my head
G D
There was liquor on my breath
G G7
You were on my mind
C
And I'll be dreamin' of that smile
G Em
without a care in the world
[Chorus]
G D C Bm
If only you were lonely
G D C Bm
If only you was lonely, too
G D C
If only you were lonely
G D7
I'd go home with you
G
I walked out of the kitchen
G7
I was tired as hell
C A7
Another day's here oh well
G D7
Somewhere there's a smile
C G D G7
with my name on it.
