[Gb] [Bbm]
[Abm] [Db] [Gb]
When a little while from now, [Bbm] not feeling any less sour,
[Db] I [Dbm] promised myself to treat [Bb] myself and visit [Eb] a nearby tower.
[Abm] Climbing to the top, [Ab] will throw myself off,
[Gb] In an effort to make clear to whoever won this fight.
[F] When you're [Bbm] shattered, left standing in the lurch,
[Dbm] At a church where [Eb] people [Abm] sing,
My God, that's tough, she stood him [Ab] up,
No point in us remaining,
[Gb] For me is well gone,
[Bbm] As I did [Eb] on my own, [Abm] alone [Db] again.
[Gb] Naturally, to think that only yesterday,
[Bbm] I was cheerful, [Db] bright and gay,
[Dbm] Looking forward to what I wouldn't do,
The role I was [Eb] about to play.
[Abm] But as if to knock me down,
[Ab] Reality came around,
[Gb] And without so much as a mere touch,
Cut me into [F] little pieces,
[Bbm] Leaving me to doubt,
[Dbm] All about God and [Eb] His mercy,
[Abm] Oh, if He really does exist,
[Bm] Why did He desert me,
[Gb] In my army?
[Bbm] Truly I'm [Eb] indeed, [Abm] alone again.
[Db] [Gb] Naturally, [A] it seems to me,
That there are more [E] hearts broken in the world,
That can't [Ab] be mended,
[Db] Left [A] unattended.
What do we [Db] do?
[Abm] What do we do?

[Abm] [Db] Alone again, [Gb] naturally,
Looking back over the years,
[Bbm] Whatever else that appears,
[Dbm] I remember I cried when my father died,
[Bb] Never wishing to hide the [Eb] tears.
[Abm] Sixty-five years old,
[Ab] I love a God rest His soul,
[Gb] Couldn't understand why the only man,
She had ever loved [F] had been taken,
[Bbm] Leaving her to start [Dbm] with a heart,
So [Eb] badly broken,
[Abm] Despite encouragement from me,
[Ab] No words were ever spoken.
[Gb] When she passed away,
[Bbm] I cried and cried all day,
[Abm] Alone again, [Db] [Bbm] naturally.
