🎸 Verse 1:
G                       Bm
I picked myself up in a downtown bar
             Em          D         A
You know the feelin' was lousy but as I'd come this far
              Am                   Em7       Bm
Well it's too easy to drink when nobody's home
      A7
But I hate to eat alone


🎸 Verse 2:
G                       Bm
And frozen dinners don't do much for me
               Em          D         A
When you've got TV on the table and TV on TV
              Am                   Em7       Bm
All you do is chew your fingers down to the bone
  A7                Cmaj7  D7
I hate to eat alone

🎸 Verse 3:
Cm                               F7        Bb
Like the actor who's forgotten his words
            Ab6         Gm7
You stumble through the story line
        F             Eb
Another place another time when you were with me


🎸 Verse 4:
G                       Bm
They say the city's rotten to the core
             Em          D         A
There's no communication with each other anymore
              Am                   Em7       Bm
But we stopped talkin' to each other A long time before
      A7
And I hate to eat alone


🎸 Verse 5:
G             Bm                  Em
Hear it in my words, see it in my eyes
                Am                    Em
Since you went away I wear a cheap disguise
Cmaj7                                   A7
Waitin' for the mornin', waitin' on the light
                                   D7
Hopin' for the sunshine before the night


🎸 Verse 6:
G                       Bm
I didn't tell you that I had to change
             Em          D         A
So you just took it for granted that we'd remain the same
              Am                   Em7       Bm
I know that nobody's guilty. No one's to blame so I end up on my own
      A7
God I hate to eat alone
A7
I hate to eat alone; I hate to eat alone
