Intro:
Gbmaj7 Gb6 Bbmin7 Eb7 Abmin7 Db7b9 Gb6

Verse 1:
 Gbmaj7                 Gb6
In a little while from now
     Bbmin7
If I'm not feeling any less sour
     Dbmin7
I promised myself to treat myself
     Bbdim7          Eb7
And visit a nearby tower

     Abmin7
And climbing to the top
     Abdim7
Will throw myself off
   Gb                Gb+
In an effort to make it clear to whoever
  Gb6                    F7
What it's like when you're shattered
Bbmin7                     Dbmin7
Left standing in the lurch, at a church
                Eb7
Were people are saying
    Abmin7
My God that's tough, she stood him up
    Abdim7
No point in us remaining

  Gbmaj7         Gb6
We may as well go home
  Bbmin7         Eb7
As I did on my own
Abmin7  Db7       Gbmaj7
Alone again, naturally


Verse 2:
  Gbmaj7                 Gb6
To think that only yesterday
         Bbmin7
I was cheerful, bright and gay
           Dbmin7
Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do
 Bbdim7          Eb7
The role I was about to play

  Abmin7
But as if to knock me down
  Abdim7
Reality came around
    Gb                Gb+
And without so much as a mere touch
  Gb6                    F7
Cut me into little pieces

 Bbmin7
Leaving me to doubt
Dbmin7                  Eb7
All about God and His mercy
  Abmin7
For if He really does exist
  Abdim7
Why did He desert me

Gbmaj7         Gb6
In my hour of need?
Bbmin7         Eb7
I truly am indeed
Abmin7  Db7       Gbmaj7
Alone again, naturally


Bridge 1:
 A
It seems to me that

There are more hearts
        E7
Broken in the world
       Abdim7
That can't be mended
Db7       A
Left unattended
 Ebdim7     Dbmaj7
What do we do?
            Abmin7   Db7b9
What do we do?

Verse 3:
 Gbmaj7                 Gb6
Now looking back over the years
           Bbmin7
And what ever else that appears
      Dbmin7
I remember I cried when my father died
 Bbdim7          Eb7
Never wishing to hide the tears

      Abmin7
And at sixty-five years old
      Abdim7
My mother, God rest her soul
    Gb                Gb+
Couldn't understand, why the only man
   Gb6                    F7
She had ever loved had been taken

    Bbmin7                   Dbmin7
Leaving her to start with a heart
            Eb7
So badly broken
   Abmin7
Despite encouragement from me
   Abdim7
No words were ever spoken

 Gbmaj7             Gb6
And when she passed away
  Bmin7              Eb
I cried and cried all day
Abmin7  Db7       Gbmaj7
Alone again, naturally
Abmin7  Db7       Gbmaj7
Alone again, naturally
