Gilbert O'Sullivan - Alone Again


[Intro]
 
Dmaj7   D6
F#m7   F#7sus4   F#m7
Em7   A7b9   D
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Dmaj7                   D6
In a little while from now,
       F#m7                 F#7sus4
If I'm not feeling any less sour
  Am
I promised myself to treat myself
    F#m7b5         B7
And visit a nearby tower,
      Em7
And climbing to the top,
       Em7b5         Gm6
Will throw myself off
      D                 Daug
In an effort to make it clear to who
     D6                         C#7
Ever what it's like when you're shattered
     F#m                           Am
Left standing in the lurch, at a church
                B7b9  B7
Where people're say___ing,
    Em
"My God that's tough, she stood him up!
    Em7b5           Gm6
No point in us remaining.
  Dmaj7           D6
We may as well go home."
    F#m  F#m7  B7
As I did on my own...
 
 
[Refrain]
 
  Em        A7b9     D
Alone again, naturally
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
    Dmaj7                  D6
To think that only yesterday,
      F#m7                 F#7sus4
I was cheerful, bright and gay,
         Am
Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do,
     F#m7b5               B7
The role I was about to play
       Em7
But as if to knock me down,
   Em7b5  Gm6     Em7b5
Rea__lity came around
      D                  Daug
And without so much as a mere touch,
       D6          C#7
Cut me into little pieces
F#m
Leaving me to doubt,
          Am           B7b9  B7
Talk about God and His mer___cy
     Em
Who if He really does exist
Em7b5             Gm6
Why did He desert me
Dmaj7          D6
In my hour of need?
    F#m  F#m7  B7
I truly am in__deed,
 
 
[Refrain]
 
  Em        A7b9     D
Alone again, naturally
 
 
[Bridge]
 
    F
It seems to me that
 
There are more hearts
C7              C7/Bb
broken in the world 
               Em7b5
that can't be mended
Bbm 5      F
 Left unattended
Bm7b5        Amaj7             A9/E   A7
 What do we do?___ What do we do?
 
 
[Interlude: Flamenco Guitar]
 
Dmaj7   D6   F#m7   F#7sus4   F#m7
Am      F#m7b5   B7
Em7     Em7b5
D   Daug   D6   C#7
F#m   Am   B7b9   B7
Em   Em7b5   Gm6
Dmaj7   D6   F#m   F#m7   B7
 
 
[Refrain]
 
  Em       A7b9     D
Alone again, naturally
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
    Dmaj7                  D6
Now looking back over the years,
        F#m7              F#7sus4
And whatever else that appears
     Am
I remember I cried when my father died
      F#m7b5               B7
Never wishing to hide the tears
        Em7
And at sixty five years old,
    Em7b5
My mother, God rest her soul,
          D                  Daug
Couldn't understand, why the only man
        D6                  C#7
She had ever loved had been taken
F#m                          Am
Leaving her to start with a heart
         B7b9  B7
So badly bro___ken
    Em
Despite encouragement from me
     Em7b5         Gm6
No words were ever spoken
    Dmaj7             D6
And when she passed away
    F#m       F#m7    B7
I cried and cried all day
 
 
[Refrain/Ending]
 
  Em       A7b9     D/F#   F#m7   B7
Alone again, naturally
 
  Em        A7b9  A7      D
Alone again,______naturally
