[Verse 1]
      F
These days my waves get lost in the oceans
Bb                      Dm
Seven billion swimmers, man I'm going through the motions
F
Sent up a flare, I need love and devotion
Bb                    Dm
Traded for some faces that I never know, notion
F
Maybe I should try to find the old me
        Bb                           Dm
Take me to the places and the people that know me
          F
Tryin' to disconnect, thinking maybe you could show me
           Bb                        Dm
If there's so many people here, then why am I so lonely?


[Chorus]
F
Can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm
Can I get, can I get a connection?
F
Can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm
Can I get, can I get a connection?


[Verse 2]
F
Real friends, good friends are hard to find, let's face it
Bb                               Dm
Buy the perfect home and there's a flood in the basement
F
Made a couple dollars now and I ain't tryin' to chase it
Bb                  Dm
Kids from Oklahoma, man we don't waste it
F
I'm just tryin' to paint the picture for me
             Bb                        Dm
Something I could give a damn about at maybe 40
               F
Years and I be ready and willing and able to edit the story
                 Bb                     Dm
Cause there's so many people here to be so damn lonely


[Chorus]
F
Can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm
Can I get, can I get a connection?
F
Can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm
Can I get, can I get a connection?
F                             Bb         Dm
I can see it in my, see it in my reflection
    F
Oh, can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm
Can I get, can I get a connection?




[Bridge]
           F
Right now, right now, I'm switching to a new lane
Bb                 Dm
Foot to the floor, man searching for the real thing
F
Meet somebody else, sometimes ain't no shame
Bb                    Dm
Head to the clouds sayin'


[Chorus]
          F
It's like can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm
Can I get, can I get a connection?
F
Can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm
Can I get, can I get a connection?
F                             Bb         Dm
I can see it in my, see it in my reflection
    F
Oh, can I get a connection?
Bb                   Dm            F   Bb
Can I get, can I get a connection?


[Outro]
Dm
Try'na find the old me
        F   Bb   Dm
Lonely
