[Gb] [Bbm]
[Abm] [Db] [Gb]
Been a little while from now, [Bbm] I'm not feeling any less sour
[Db] I [Dbm] promised myself to treat [Bb] myself and visit a [Eb] nearby tower
[Abm] Climbing to the top, [Ab] will throw myself off
[Gb] In an effort to make clear to whoever what it's like
[F] When you're [Bbm] shattered, left standing in the lurch
[Bb] At a [Dbm] church where [Eb] people [Abm] sing
My God, that's tough, she stood him [Bm] up
No point in us replaying [Gb] it
For me, it's well gone
[Bbm] As I did [Eb] on my own, [Abm] alone [Db] again
[Gb] Naturally, to think that only yesterday
[Bbm] I was cheerful, [Db] bright and gay
[Dbm] Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do
The role I was [Eb] about to play
[Abm] But as if to knock me down, [Ab] reality came around
[Gb] Went without so much as a mere touch
[Ebm] Cut me into [F] little pieces, [Bbm] leaving me to doubt
[Bb] Talk about God in [Eb] His mercy, [Abm] if He really does exist
[Bm] Why did He deserve it [Gb] in my heart?
I [Bbm] truly am [Eb] indeed, [Abm] alone again
[Db] Naturally, [Gb]
[A] it seems to me that there are more [E] hearts
Broken in the world that can't [Ab] be mended [Db] Left [A] unattended
What do we [Db] do?
What do we [Abm] do?

[Abm] Alone [Db] again, [Gb] naturally
I'm looking back over the years
[Bbm] Whatever else that it bears
[Dbm] I remember I cried when my father [Bb] died
Never wishing to hide the [Eb] tears
[Abm] At sixty-five years old
[Ab] My mother, God rest her soul
[Gb] Couldn't understand why the only [Ebm] man
She had ever loved [F] had been taken
[Bbm] Leaving her to start [Dbm] with a heart so [Eb] badly broken
[Abm] Despite encouragement from me, [Bm] no words were ever spoken
[Bbm] When she [Gb] passed away, [Bbm] I cried and [Eb] cried all day
[Abm] Alone again, [Db] [Bbm] naturally
[Eb] Alone
[Abm] [Db] again, [Gb] naturally
