[F#m]
[B]
[F#m] I want you to [C#m] know [B] that I am happy for you.
[F#m] I wish nothing but [B] the best for you both.
I [F#m] know the virgin loved me, but she perverted [C#m] like me.
[G#m] She'd go and [B] dump you in a theater.
Does [F#m] she speak it aquanine?
When she'd have your baby, I'm sure she'd [C#m] make a [B] real excellent mother.
[F#m] Because the love that you gave, that we made,
was unable to make it enough for her to [B] be open-minded.
No.
[F#m] And every time you speak my name,
she'd know how you told me and pulled me [B] until you died.
Until you died,
when you stand up [F#] to [E] remind [A] us, yeah,
when [B] you went away,
[F#] it's not fair to [E] deny you.
[A] Across I dare,
[B] at your gates, my girl, girl, girl.
[F#m] You [E] seem [F#m] very well.
[A]
[B] Things look peaceful.
[F#m] I'm not quite as well.
[B] I thought you should [G#m] know.
[B]
[F#m] Did you forget about me, Mr.
[A] Duplicity?
[B] I hate [G#m] to bug [B] you in the middle [E] of dinner,
but it was [F#m] a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced.
[B] And I think it'll make me younger.
[F#m] Because the love that you gave, that we made,
was unable to make it enough for her to [B] be open-minded.
No.
[F#m] And every time you speak her name,
she'd know how you told me and pulled me [B] until you died.
Until you died,
when you stand up
[F#] to [E] remind us, [A] yeah,
when [B] you went away,
it's [F#] not fair to [E] deny you.
[A] Across I dare,
at [B] your gates, my girl, girl, girl.
All alone.
[A]
All [F#m] alone.
[B]
[F#m] [B] [F#m]
[B]
[F#m] [B] All alone.
[A] All alone.
All alone.
[B]
[F#m] Because the joke that you laid in the bed, that was me,
and I'm not gonna fade as soon as [B] you close your eyes.
And you know it.
[F#m] And every time I scratch my little dimple,
I hope your soulfulness is back.
I hope you feel it.
[B] Well, can you feel it?
When [F#] I stand up to [E] remind [A] us,
when [B] you went away,
it's [F#] not fair to [A] deny [E] you.
[A] Across I dare,
at [B] your gates, my girl, girl, girl.
All alone.
[F#] All alone.
All [B] alone.
[A]
All alone. All alone.
[F#m]
[F#] All [A]
[B] [F#m] alone.
All alone.
