♫ Verse 1:
C majorC
In a little while from now
E minorEm
If I'm not feeling any less sour
G minorGm
I promised myself to treat myself
Em7b5Em7b5 A7A7
And visit a nearby tower
Dm7Dm7
Standing at the top
F minorFm
Will throw myself off
C majorC
In an effort to make it clear to whoever
B7B7
Just what it's like when you're shattered
E minorEm G minorGm
Left standing in a lurch, in a church where people saying
Dm7Dm7
"My God that's tough, she stood him up
F minorFm
No point in us remaining"
C majorC
"We may as well go home"
E minorEm A7A7
As I did on my own
DmDm G7G7
Alone again, naturally
♫ Verse 2:
C majorC
To think that only yesterday
E minorEm
I was cheerful, bright and gay
G minorGm
Looking forward to, who wouldn't do
Em7b5Em7b5 A7A7
The words I was about to say
Dm7Dm7
And as if to knock me down
F minorFm
Reality came around
C majorC
And without so much as a mere touch
B7B7
Cut me into little piеces
E minorEm
Leaving me to doubt
G minorGm
All about God and His mеrcy
Dm7Dm7
For if He really does exist
F minorFm
Then why did He desert me
C majorC
In my hour of need?
E minorEm A7A7
I truly am indeed
DmDm G7G7
Alone again, naturally
Flute ♫ Solo:
♫ Verse 3:
C majorC
Looking back over the years
E minorEm
And whatever else that appears
G minorGm
I remember I cried when my father died
Em7b5Em7b5 A7A7
Never wishing to hide the tears
Dm7Dm7
And at sixty-five years old
F minorFm
My mother, God rest her soul
C majorC
Couldn't understand, why the only man
B7B7
She had ever loved had been taken
E minorEm G minorGm
Leaving her to start with a heart
So badly broken
Dm7Dm7
Despite encouragement from me
F minorFm
No words were ever spoken
C majorC
When she passed away
E minorEm A7A7
I cried and cried all day
Dm7Dm7 G7G7
Alone again
