Introdução:
G
In a little while from now
Bm
If I' m not feeling any less sour
Dm
I promise myself to treat myself
E4 E
And visit a nearby tower
Am
And climbing to the top
Cm
To throw myself off
G G+ G6 F#7
In an effort to make it clear to whoever what it' s like when you' re shattered
Bm7
Left standing in the lurch
Dm E7
At a church with people saying
Am
"My God, that' s tough, she stood him up
Cm
No point in us remaining
G G7M
We may as well go home"
Bm7 E7
As I did on my own
Am D7 G
Alone again, naturally
G
To think that only yesterday
Bm
I was cheerful bright and gay
Dm
Looking forward - who wouldn' t do?
E4 E
The role I was about to play
Am
And as if to knock me down
Cm
Reality came around
G G+ G6
And without so much as a mere touch
G6 F#7
Threw me into little pieces
Bm7
Leaving me to doubt
Dm E7
Talk about God in his mercy
Am
Who if He really does exist
Cm
Why did He desert me
G
In my hour of need
Bm7 E7
I truly am indeed
Am D7 G
Alone again, naturally
Bb
It seems to me that there are more hearts
F Cm D7
Broken in the world than can be mended
Bb
Left unattended
Eº7 D7M
What do we do?
Am7 D7
What do we do?
G
Looking back over the years
Bm
And whatever else appears
Dm
I remember I cried when my father died
E4 E
Never wishing to hide my tears
Am
And at sixty-five years old
Cm
My mother, God rest her soul
G G+
Couldn' t understand why the only man
G6 F#7
She had ever loved had been taken
Bm7
Leaving her to start
Dm E7
With a heart so badly broken
Am
Despite encouragement from me
Cm
No words were ever spoken
G Bm7 E7
When she passed away I cried and cried all day
Am D7 G
Alone again, naturally
