Verse 1
D 
In a little while from now,
F#m 
if I'm not   feeling any less sad,
Am 
I promise myself to treat myself
F#m 
B 
and visit a nearby town.
Em 
And climbing to the top,
Gm 
to throw myself off,
D 
In an effort to make it clear to who
Ever what it's like when
C# 
you're shattered
F#m 
Left standing in the lurch, out of church
Am 
B 
Where people were saying,
Em 
my God, that's tough
Gm 
She stood him up, no point in us remaining
D 
We may as well go home,
F#m 
B 
as I     did on my own
Em 
A 
D 
Alone again, naturally
To think that only yesterday
F#m 
I was cheerful, and gay
Am 
Looking for ward to, who wouldn't do
F#m 
B 
The role I     was about to play
Em 
But as if  to knock me down
Gm 
Reality came around
D 
And without so much as a mere touch
C# 
Cut me into little pieces
F#m 
Leaving   me to doubt
Am 
B 
Talk about God in His mercy,
Em 
who if  He really does exist
Gm 
Why did He desert me in
D 
my hour of need?
F#m 
B 
Em 
I truly am indeed alone again,
A 
D 
literally
It seems to me
that there are more hearts
C 
broken in the world
Gm 
than can be mended
A 
Left unattended
A 
What do we do?
Em

Alone again, naturally
D 
And looking back over the years,
F#m 
whatever else  that appears
Am 
I remember
I cried when my father died, never
F#m 
B 
Wish  ing to hide the tears
Em 
And at 65  years old
Gm 
My mother got rest her soul
D 
Couldn't understand why the only man
C# 
She had ever loved had been taken
F#m 
Leaving her to start
Am 
B 
With a heart so  madly broken
Em 
Despite encouragement from me
Gm 
No words were ever spoken
D 
When she passed away
F#m 
B 
I cried and cried all day
Em 
A 
F#m 
Alone again, naturally
