As covered by Jars of Clay
--Lonely People--
Album: Who We Are Instead
Written by Dan Peek and Catherine L. Peek, ©1974
First performed and produced by America
Album: Holiday (©1974)
Transcribed by Hans Hong (dyndragon on christianguitar.org)
The song is quite easy to play using standard tuning and chords, just
listen to the song for the strum rhythm. The flourishes and picking
uses fingerings that are very close to just what the chords are as
well, so you may be able to figure them out easily just by ear.
Enjoy!

| tukelarbutton - 2006-04-03 | Very accurate tab! whoever put the words on there, the words are off.
G Em Bm
This is for all the lonely people...etc
The G and Em get two counts and the bm gets 4. But the second time the bm gets two counts and the D comes in on the last two counts. |
