Alone Again Naturally (Gilbert O’sullivan) – (Hợp Âm) – Điệu Ballad

Không Capo

Verse 1 –
[G] In a little while from now
If I’m[Bm] not feeling any less sour
I [Dm] promise myself to treat myself
And [Bm] visit a nearby [E] tower
 
And [Am] climbing to the top
To [Cm] throw myself off
In an [G] effort to make it [G] clear
to whoever [G] what it’s like when you’re [F#] shattered
 
Left [Bm] standing in the lurch
At a [Dm] church with people [E] saying
“My [Am] God, that’s tough, she stood him up
No [Cm] point in us remaining
 
We [G] may as well go [G] home”
As [Bm] I did on my [E] own
[Am] Alone again, [D] naturally
 
Verse 2 –
[G] To think that only yesterday
I was [Bm] cheerful bright and gay
Looking [Dm] forward – who wouldn’t do?
The [Bm] role I was about to[E] play
 
And as [Am] if to knock me down
[Cm] Reality came around
And [G] without so much as a[G] mere touch [G]
[G] Threw me into [F#] little pieces
 
[Bm] Leaving me to doubt
Talk [Dm] about God in his [E] mercy
Who [Am] if He really does exist
[Cm] Why did He desert me
[G] In my hour of need
I [Bm] truly am [E] indeed
[Am] Alone again,[D] naturally
 
Bridge –
It [Bb] seems to me that there are more hearts
[F] Broken in the world than can be[Cm] mended [D]
Left [Bb] unattended
What do we[D] do?
What do we[Am] do? [D]
 
 
Verse 3 –
[G] Looking back over the years
And [Bm] whatever else appears
I [Dm] remember I cried when my father died
Never [Bm] wishing to hide [E] my tears
 
[Am] And at sixty-five years old
[Cm] My mother, God rest her soul
[G] Couldn’t understand why the[G] only man
She had [G] ever loved had been [F#] taken
 
[Bm] Leaving her to start
With a [Dm] heart so badly [E] broken
[Am] Despite encouragement from me
No [Cm] words were ever spoken
[G] When she passed away I [Bm] cried and cried [E] all day
[Am] Alone again,[D] Naturally
