Alone
[Intro] D Gmaj9 D
[Verse 1]
D
I was a midnight rider on a cloud of smoke
D
I could make a woman hang on every single stroke
Gmaj9
I was an iron man, I had a master plan
D
But I was alone
D
I could hear you breathing, With a sigh of the wind
D
I remember how your body started trembling
Gmaj9
Oh, what a night it's been, And for the state I'm in
D
I'm still alone
[Bridge 1]
Bm7 Em7
And all the wonders made for the Earth
A Bm G
And all the hearts in all creation
G D
Somehow I always end up alone (Always end up alone)
D
Always end up alone
[Chorus]
D Bm7
So I play, (Sha’ la) I’ll wait (I’ll wait)
Em7
'Cause you know that love takes time (Livin love between the lines)
D Bm7
We came, (Sha’ la) so far (so far)
Em7
Just the beat of a lonely heart
F#m7 G
And it's mine
D D Gmaj9 D
And I don't want to be alone
[Verse 2]
D
Well, since I got no message on your answer phone
D
Since you're busy every minute. I just stay at home
Gmaj9
I make believe you care, I feel you everywhere
D
But I'm still alone
D
I'm on a wheel of fortune with a twist of fate
D
'Cause I know it isn't heaven, is it love or hate
Gmaj9
Am I the subject of the pain, Am I the stranger in the rain
D
I am alone
[Bridge 2]
Bm Em7
And if the glory there to behold
A Bm
Maybe it's my imagination
Em7 A
Another story there to be told… oow
[Chorus]
D Bm7
So I play, (Sha’ la) I'll wait (At times)
Em7
And I pray it's not too late……… (Tears that you cry)
D Bm7
We came (Sha’ la) so far (so far)
Em7
Just the beat of a lonely heart
F#m7 Gmaj9
And it's mine (pause)
D
And I don't want to be alone
[Bridge 3]
Bm7 Em7
And all the wonders made for the Earth
A Bm
And all the hearts in all creation
Em7 A
Another story there to be told… oow
[Chorus]
D Bm
So I play, (Sha’ la) I’ll wait (I’ll wait)
Em7
And I pray it's not too late (Livin love between the lines)
D Bm
We came (Sha’ la) so far (so far)
Em7
Just the beat of a lonely heart
F#m7 Gmaj9
And it's mine
D
And I don't want to be alone
[CODA]
D throughout
Gone, but not out of sight
I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home
Gonna Face the heat of the night
The one that you love's got a heart that's made of stone
Shine and search for the light
And sooner or later you'll be cruising on your o-cean
And clean out of sight
I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home
