🎸 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

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

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

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
