Alone Again

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]In a little while from now
If I'm not feeling any less sour
I [C]promised myself to treat myself
[Am]And visit a nearby tower[B]
And [Em]climbing to the top
[Edim]To throw myself off
In an [D]effort to make it [Daug]clear
to whoever
[Bm]What's it like when you're [C#]shattered
Left [F#m]standing in the lurch,
at a church
[F#dim]At a church with people [B]saying
My [Em]God that's tough, she stood him up
No [Edim]point in us rem[Gm]aining
[Edim]We may as [D]well go home
As [F#m]I did on my [B]own
[Em]Alone [A]again, natur[D]ally

[Verse 2]
To think [D]that only yesterday
I was [F#m]cheerful, bright and gay
Looking [Am]forward to, who wouldn't do
[F#dim]The role I was about [B]to play
And [Em]as if to knock me down
Real[Edim]ity came around
[D]And without so much as a [Daug]mere touch
Cut me [Bm]into little [C#sus4]pieces[C#]
[F#m]Leaving me to doubt
Talk [F#dim]about God and His mer[B]cy
Oh, [Em]if He really does exist
Why [Edim]did He desert me?
[D]In my hour of [Bm]need
[D]I t[F#m]ruly am indee[B]d
[Em]Alone [A]again, natur[D]ally

[Verse 3]
[F]Seems to me that there are more hearts
[C]Broken in the world
that can't [Edim]be mended
[Gm]Left unatt[Am]ende[F]d
[Bdim]What do we do?[A]
What do we [Em]do?[A]

[Interlude 1]
[D][F#m][Am]
[F#dim][B][Em][Edim]
[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Lookin' back over the years
Whatever else appears
I re[C]member I cried
when my father died
Never [D]wishing [F#dim]to hide the t[B]ears
And at [Em]six ty-five years years old
My [Edim]mother, God rest her soul
Couldn't [D]understand
why [Daug]the only man
She'd ever [Bm]loved had been [C#sus4]taken[C#]
[F#m]Leaving her to start
With [Am]a heart so badly [B]broken
Des[Em]pite encouragement from me
No words were [Edim]ever spoken
(were ever [D]spoken)
When she passed away
(when she passed away)
[F#m]I cried and cried [B]all day (cried and
cried all day)
[Em]Alone [A]again, natur[D]ally[B]
[Em]Alone [A]again, natur[D]ally
