  intro:  Gbmaj7   Gb6   Bbm7   Eb7   Abm7  Db7-9  Gbmaj7  Gb6

  

  v. 1:	Gbmaj7                 Gb6

  	In a little while from now

  	       Bbm7

  	If I'm not feeling any less sour

  	  Dbm

  	I promise myself to treat myself

  	    Bbm7-5          Eb7

  	And visit a nearby tower

  	    Abm7

  	And climbing to the top

  	   Abm7-5

  	To throw myself off

  	      Gb                 Gb+

  	In an effort to make it clear to who-

  	     Gb6                         F7

  	ever what it's like when you're shattered

  	     Bbm7

  	Left standing in the lurch

  	      Dbm                Eb7

  	At a church with people saying

  	    Abm7

  	"My God, that's tough, she stood him up

  	   Abm7-5

  	No point in us remaining

  	 Gbmaj7          Gb6

  	We may as well go home"

  	  Bbm7         Eb7

  	As I did on my own

  	Abm7        Db7-9   Gbmaj7  Gb6

  	Alone again, naturally

  	

  v. 2:	To think that only yesterday

  	I was cheerful bright and gay

  	Looking forward - who wouldn't do?

  	The role I was about to play

  	And as if to knock me down

  	Reality came around

  	And without so much as a mere touch

  	Threw me into little pieces

  	Leaving me to doubt

  	Talk about God in his mercy

  	Who if He really does exist

  	Why did He desert me

  	In my hour of need

  	I truly am indeed

  	Abm7        Db7-9   Gb

  	Alone again, naturally

  	

  bridge:	    A                                      E7

  	It seems to me that there are more hearts broken in the world

  	            G#m7-5     C#7-9

  	Than can be mended

  	        A        D#m7-5

  	Left unattended

  	          C#maj7

  	What do we do?

  	          G#m7    C#7-9

  	What do we do?

  	

  (nylon-string guitar solo, verse chords)

  	

  v. 3:	Looking back over the years

  	And whatever else appears

  	I remember I cried when my father died

  	Never wishing to hide my tears

  	And at sixty-five years old

  	My mother, God rest her soul

  	Couldn't understand why the only man

  	She had ever loved had been taken

  	Leaving her to start

  	With a heart so badly broken

  	Despite encouragement from me

  	No words were ever spoken

  	When she passed away

  	I cried and cried all day

  

  tag:	Abm7      Db7-9   Bbm7   Eb7

  	Alone again naturally

  	Abm7      Db7-9 Db7      Gb

  	Alone again...   naturally
