In Gbmaj7a little while from nowGb6
If I'm nBbm7ot feeling any less sour
I Dbmpromise myself to treat myself
And Bbm7(b5)visit a nearby toweEb7r
And Abm7climbing to the top
ToAbm7(b5) throw myself off
In an Gbeffort to make it clGb(aug)ear to who-
ever wGb6hat it's like when you're shaF7ttered
Left sBbm7tanding in the lurch
At a cDbmhurch with people sEb7aying
"My Abm7God, that's tough, she stood him up
NoAbm7(b5) point in us remaining
WeGbmaj7 may as well go hGb6ome"
As Bbm7I did on my owEb7n
Abm7Alone again,Db7(b9) naturallyGbmaj7 Gb6
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
Abm7Alone aDb7(b9)gain, naturGbally
It seems Ato me that there are more hearts broken E7in the world
Than can be G#m7(b5)mended C#7(b9)

(Couplet instumental)
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
