Alone Again Naturally chords by GilbertO'Sullivan

[Verse 1]

G Bm
In a little while from now If I'm not feeling any less sour

Dm
I promise myself to treat myself
Bm E7
And visit a nearby tower

Am Cm
And climbing to the top To throw myself off

G G+ G6 F#7
In an effort to make it clear to whoever what it's like when you're shattered

Alone Again Naturally – Gilbert O'Sullivan×

S M
Bm7
Left standing in the lurch
Dm E7
At a church with people saying
Am
"My God, that's tough, she stood him up
S M
Bm7
Left standing in the lurch
Dm E7
At a church with people saying

Am
"My God, that's tough, she stood him up
Cm
No point in us remaining

G Gmaj7
We may as well go home"
Bm7 E7
As I did on my own
Am D7
Alone again, naturally

[Verse 2]

G
To think that only yesterday
Bm
I was cheerful bright and gay
Dm
Looking forward - who wouldn't do?
Bm E7
The role I was about to play

Am
And as if to knock me down
Cm
Reality came around
G G+ G6
And without so much as a mere touch
G6 F#7
Threw me into little pieces

Bm7
Leaving me to doubt
Dm E7
Talk about God in his mercy
Am
Who if He really does exist
Cm
Why did He desert me
G
In my hour of need
Bm7 E7
I truly am indeed
Am D7
Alone again, naturally

[Bridge]

Bb
It seems to me that there are more hearts
F Cm D7
Broken in the world than can be mended
Bb
Left unattended
Dmaj7
What do we do?
Am7 D7
What do we do?

[Verse 3]

G
Looking back over the years
Bm
And whatever else appears
Dm
I remember I cried when my father died
Bm7 E7
Never wishing to hide my tears

Am
And at sixty-five years old
Cm
My mother, God rest her soul
G G+
Couldn't understand why the only man
G6 F#7
She had ever loved had been taken

Bm7
Leaving her to start
Dm E7
With a heart so badly broken
Am
Despite encouragement from me
Cm
No words were ever spoken
G Bm7 E7
When she passed away I cried and cried all day
Am D7
Alone again, Naturally
[G] [E7] [Am7] [D7] X3
