Sleepin' Alone Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]This song was first released on the Some Days Are Diamonds
Album. It is the only [G]album it appears on.
[Am][D][G]

[Verse 2]
For someone who's got everything,
life can still be [D]rough
If things are what you're lookin' for,
there's never quite [G]enough
And all the tea in China won't
make a house a [C]home
You can be a [G]millionaire and [D]still
be sleepin' alone
[G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]There might be some one night
stands to ease the pain in[D]side
Or someone you can call around if
you've lost all your [G]pride
Please don't be mistaken. I
don't mean to put that [C]down
I know there's times when [G]anything is [D]better
than sleepin' alone
[G][F][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Sleepin' [D]alone can make a bottle just
about your dearest [G]friend
Sleepin' [D]alone can make you [Am]swear
to God this [C]night will never end
[D]

[Verse 5]
You [G]know it's not company
you are lookin' [D]for
You know it's not just pleasure,
you know it's somethin' [G]more
You know it's not the answer if
it's not like comin' [C]home
If the one who's there does[G]n't really care,
it's [D]worse than sleepin' alone
[G][F][C]

[Verse 6]
[G]
Sleepin' [D]alone can make a bottle just
about your dearest [G]friend
Sleepin' [D]alone can make you [Am]swear to
God this [C]night will never end
[D]

[Verse 7]
[G]For someone who's got everything,
life can still be [D]rough
If things are what you're lookin' for,
there's never quite [G]enough
And all the gold that glitters won't
make a house [C]a home
You can be a [G]millionaire and [D]still
be sleepin' [G]alone[Am][G]
[C]You might be a [G]millionaire and
[D]still be sleepin' [C]alone
