[F]
In a little while from now, if I'm not feeling any less sour,
[Eb] I promise myself to [Cm] treat myself and visit a nearby [D] tower.
[Gm] And climbing to the top [G] to throw myself off,
[F] In an effort to make it clear to whoever [Dm] what's it like
When [E] you're shattered, [Am] left standing in the lurch
At [A] a church with [D] people saying,
[Gm] My God, that's tough, she stood him up,
[G] No point in us remaining,
[F] We may as well go home,
[Am] As I did on [D] my own,
[Gm] Alone again, [C]
[F] naturally.
To think that only yesterday,
[Am] I was cheerful, bright and gay,
[Cm] Looking forward to who wouldn't do
The role I was about [D] to play.
[Gm] And as if to knock me down,
[G] Reality came around,
[F] And without so much as a mere touch,
[Dm] Cut me into [Am] little [E] pieces,
[Am] Leaving me to doubt,
Talk [Cm] about God and [D] His mercy,
[Gm] Oh, if He really does exist,
[G] Why did He desert me,
[F] In my hour [Dm] of need?
[Am] I truly am [D] indeed,

[Eb]
[F] Couldn't understand why the only man she'd [Dm] ever loved,
Had [E] been taken.
