Introduction:  F#7M   F#6   A#m   A#7(11)   G#m7   C#7   F#  

           F#7M                           F#6 
In a little while from now
               A#m                                   A#7(11) 
If I'm not feeling any less sour
     C#m                             C#m7 
I promise myself to treat myself
         A#m7(b5) 
And visit a nearby tower
         G#m 
And climbing to the top
           G#m7(b5) 
Will throw myself off
             F#                               F#(#5) 
In an effort to make it clear to who-
           F#6                                                 F7 
ever what it's like when you're shattered
           A#m 
Left standing in the lurch
           A#m7(b5) 
At a church with people saying
         G#m 
My God, that's tough, she stood him up
       G#m7(b5) 
No point in us remaining
       F#7M                     F#6 
We may as well go home
     A#m7                 D#7(9) 
As I   did on my own
   G#m7                          F# 
Alone again,       naturally
       F#7M                                   F#6 
To think that only yesterday
             A#m                                 A#7(11) 
I was cheerful bright and gay
                 C#m                           C#m7 
Looking forward to - who wouldn't do?
         A#m7(b5) 
The role I was about to play
             G#m 
And as if to knock me down
     G#m7(b5) 
Reality came around
             F#                                 F#(#5) 
And without so much as a mere touch
                   F#6                 F7 
Threw me into little pieces
 A#m 
Leaving me to doubt
             A#m7(b5) 
Talk about   God in his mercy
       G#m 
Who if He really does exist
 G#m7(b5) 
Why   did   He   desert me
 F#7M                   F#6 
In my hour of need
     A#m7               D#7(9) 
I truly I'm indeed
   G#m7                        F# 
Alone again,     naturally
         A                                                                           E 
It seems to me that there are more hearts broken in the world
                         G#m7(b5) 
Than can be mended
                 A               D#m7(b5) 
Left unattended
                       C#7M 
What do we do?
                     G#m7   C#7(9) 
What do we do?

   G#m7                        F# 
Alone again       naturally
 F#7M                                   F#6 
Looking back over the years
                 A#m                         A#7(11) 
And whatever else that appears
         C#m                                       C#m7 
I remember I cried when my father died
             A#m7(b5) 
Never wishing to hide the tears
               G#m 
And at sixty-five years old
       G#m7(b5) 
My mother, God rest her soul
                   F#                                 F#(#5) 
Couldn't understand why the only man
                 F#6                                 F7 
She had ever loved had been taken
 A#m 
Leaving her to start
               A#m7(b5) 
With a heart so badly broken
       G#m 
Despite encouragement from me
       G#m7(b5) 
No words were ever spoken
 F#7M                       F#6 
When she passed away
     A#m7                               D#7(9) 
I cried and cried all day
   G#m7                          A#m7(9)  D#7(9) 
Alone again         naturally
   G#m7                    C#7       F# 
Alone again........ naturally
