All By Myself

All by Myself was written and performed by Eric Carmen in 1975. It is well-known for its emotive melancholy and for utilizing a piano interlude based on the second movement (Adagio Sostenuto) of Rachmaninoffs Piano Sonata No.2. Carmen reportedly was unaware that the Rachmaninoff melody he adapted was copyright protected until after the song became a hit, resulting in an agreement where he had to pay royalties. The song reflects the loneliness and ... despair of being alone, inspired after Carmen broke from his band, the Raspberries, and dealt with personal issues. See more [+]

Haven't Met You Yet
Michael Bublé
 A 
When I was young
         Dm         A    Em 
I never needed anyone
            F#                 Bm    Dm 
And makin'  love was just for fun
                A    Dm  E7 
Those days are gone

 A 
Livin'  alone
            Dm                    A      Em 
I think of all the friends I' ve known
            F#            Bm     Dm 
But when I dial the telephone
          A    Dm  E7 
Nobody' s home

 A         C#m 
All by myself
                Em    F#    Bm       Dm  E 
Don' t wanna be, all by myself anymore
 A         C#m 
All by myself
                  Em    F#    Bm       Dm   E 
Don' t wanna live, all by myself anymore

 A 
Hard to be sure
             Dm           A     Em 
Sometimes I feel so insecure
             F#              Bm    Dm 
And love so distant and obscure
             A    Dm  E7 
Remains the cure

 A         C#m 
All by myself
                Em    F#    Bm       Dm   E 
Don' t wanna be, all by myself anymore
 A         C#m 
All by myself
                  Em    F#    Bm       Dm   E 
Don' t wanna live, all by myself anymore
