In a little while fG6rom now
If I'm Bm7not feeling any less sour
I Dmpromise myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tE7ower
And Am7climbing to the top
To throw myself off
In Gan effort to mG5ake It clear to who-ever
What it's like wG6hen you're shatF#7tered
Left Bm7standing in the lurch
At a cDmhurch with peE7ople saying
"My Am7God, that's tough, she stood him up.
No point in us remaining
We may as well gG6o home".
Bm7As I did onE7 my own.
AAm7lone againD7, naturally G6
To think that only yG6esterday
I was cheerfulBm7 bright and gay
LoDmoking forward who wouldn't do
The role I was aboE7ut to play
And Am7as if to knock me down
Reality came around
And wiGthout so much as aG5 mere touch
TG6hrew me into little pF#7ieces
LeaviBm7ng me to doubt
Talk aboDmut God in his meE7rcy
Who Am7if He really does exist
Why did He desert me
In my hour of nG6eed.
I tBm7ruly am indeE7ed
AloneAm7 again, natD7urally
It sBbeems to me that there are more hearts brF7oken in the world
Than can be mended. D7 Left unatBbtended
What do we do, what do we do Am7 D7
G6Bm7E7Am7D7G6
Looking back over thG6e years
And wBm7hatever else appears
I Dmremember I cried when my father died
Never wishingE7 to hide my tears
And Am7at sixty-five years old
My mother, God rest her soul
CouldnG't understand why G5the only man.
ShG6e had ever loved had been tF#7aken
LeaviBm7ng her to start.
With a heart Dmso badly broken, dE7espite encouragement from me
No wAm7ords were ever spoken.
When she passed away, I cried and cried all day
Am7Alone agaD7in naturBm7ally. E7
Am7Alone agaD7in nD7aturalGly
Finale: Guitar solo fade out
