Verse 1:
[G]In a little while from now
If I'm[Bm] not feeling any less sour
I [Dm]promise myself to treat myself
And [Bm]visit a nearby [E7]tower
And [Am]climbing to the top
To [Cm]throw myself off
In an [G]effort to make it [Gaug]clear
to whoever [G6]what it's like when you're [F#7]shattered
Left [Bm7]standing in the lurch
At a [Dm]church with people [E7]saying
"My [Am]God, that's tough, she stood him up
No [Cm]point in us remaining
We [G]may as well go [Gmaj7]home"
As [Bm7]I did on my [E7]own
[Am]Alone again, [D7]naturally
Verse 2:
[G]To think that only yesterday
I was [Bm]cheerful bright and gay
Looking [Dm]forward - who wouldn't do?
The [Bm]role I was about to[E7] play
And as [Am]if to knock me down
[Cm]Reality came around
And [G]without so much as a[Gaug] mere touch [G6]
[G6]Threw me into [F#7]little pieces
[Bm7]Leaving me to doubt
Talk [Dm]about God in his [E7]mercy
Who [Am]if He really does exist
[Cm]Why did He desert me
[G]In my hour of need
I [Bm7]truly am [E7]indeed
[Am]Alone again,[D7] naturally
Bridge:
It [Bb]seems to me that there are more hearts
[F]Broken in the world than can be[Cm] mended [D7]
Left [Bb]unattended
What do we[Dmaj7] do?
What do we[Am7] do? [D7]
Verse 3:
[G]Looking back over the years
And [Bm]whatever else appears
I [Dm]remember I cried when my father died
Never [Bm7]wishing to hide [E7]my tears
[Am]And at sixty-five years old
[Cm]My mother, God rest her soul
[G]Couldn't understand why the[Gaug] only man
She had [G6]ever loved had been [F#7]taken
[Bm7]Leaving her to start
With a [Dm]heart so badly [E7]broken
[Am]Despite encouragement from me
No [Cm]words were ever spoken
[G]When she passed away I [Bm7]cried and cried [E7]all day
[Am]Alone again,[D7] Naturally
