Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 _____Intro:

_____Verse: 1

  In a little while from now,

  If I'm not feeling any less sour

  I promised myself to treat myself

  And visit a nearby tower,

  And climbing to the top,

  Will throw myself off

  In an effort to make it clear to who

  Ever what it's like when your shattered

  Left standing in the lurch, at a church

  Where people 're say___ing,

  "My God that's tough, she stood him up!

  No point in us remaining.

  We may as well go home."

  As I did on my own,

Alone again, naturally

_____Verse: 2

  To think that only yesterday,

  I was cheerful, bright and gay,

  Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do,

  The role I was about to play

  But as if to knock me down,

  Rea__lity came around

  And without so much as a mere touch,

  Cut me into little pieces

  Leaving me to doubt,

  Talk about God and His mer___cy

  Who if He really does exist

  Why did He desert me

  In my hour of need?

  I truly am in__deed,

5

Alone again, naturally

_____Bridge:

  It seems to me that

There are more hearts

  broken in the world

  that can't be mended

5

Left unattended

What do we do?____What do we do?

_____Music: Flemenco Guitar

Alone again, naturally

_____Verse: 3

  Now looking back over the years,

  And whatever else that appears

  I remember I cried when my father died

  Never wishing to hide the tears

  And at sixty five years old,

  My mother, God rest her soul,

  Couldn't understand, why the only man

  She had ever loved had been taken

  Leaving her to start with a heart

  So badly bro___ken

  Despite encouragement from me

  No words were ever spoken

  And when she passed away

  I cried and cried all day
