Alone Again Naturally Cifras

[Intro]
 
Gbmaj7   Gb6   Bbm7   Eb7   Abm7  Db7-9  Gbmaj7  Gb6
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Gbmaj7                 Gb6
In a little while from now
       Bbm7
If I'm not feeling any less sour
  Dbm
I promise myself to treat myself
    Bbm7-5         Eb7
And visit a nearby tower
    Abm7
And climbing to the top
   Abm7-5
To throw myself off
      Gb                Gb+
In an effort to make it clear to who-
     Gb6                        F7
ever what it's like when you're shattered
     Bbm7
Left standing in the lurch
     Dbm                Eb7
At a church with people saying
    Abm7
"My God, that's tough, she stood him up
   Abm7-5
No point in us remaining
   Gbmaj7         Gb6
We may as well go home"
   Bbm7        Eb7
As I did on my own
Abm7        Db7-9      Gbmaj7  Gb6
Alone again, naturally
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Gbmaj7                   Gb6
To think that only yesterday
      Bbm7
I was cheerful bright and gay
        Dbm
Looking forward to - who wouldn't do?
    Bbm7-5              Eb7
The role I was about to play
       Abm7
And as if to knock me down
Abm7-5
Reality came around
        Gb               Gb+
And without so much as a mere touch
         Gb6         F7
Threw me into little pieces
Bbm7
Leaving me to doubt
Dbm                   Eb7
Talk about God in his mercy
    Abm7
Who if He really does exist
Abm7-5
Why did He desert me?
Gbmaj7        Gb6
In my hour of need
  Bbm7        Eb7
I truly am indeed
Abm7         Db7-9     Gb
Alone again, naturally
 
 
[Bridge]
 
    A                                     E7
It seems to me that there are more hearts broken in the world
     G#m7-5     C#7-9
Than can be mended
A        D#m7-5
Left unattended
  C#maj7
What do we do?
  G#m7    C#7-9
What do we do?

[Verse 3]
 
Gbmaj7                 Gb6
Looking back over the years
        Bbm7
And whatever else appears
    Dbm
I remember I cried when my father died
      Bbm7-5             Eb7
Never wishing to hide my tears
       Abm7
And at sixty-five years old
   Abm7-5
My mother, God rest her soul
Gb                          Gb+
Couldn't understand why the only man
Gb6                         F7
She had ever loved had been taken
Bbm7
Leaving her to start
       Dbm            Eb7
With a heart so badly broken
Abm7
Despite encouragement from me
   Abm7-5
No words were ever spoken
Gbmaj7          Gb6
When she passed away
Bbm7                  Eb7
I cried and cried all day
