Alone but Not Alone Rodney Crowell
I’m [D#]stretched out like a [G#]canvas ‘[D#]neath a blue and endless [G#]sky
[D#]Staring up through [Cm]cattle bones as [Bb]cotton balls roll by
I [D#]swear I see a [G#]rose up there so [D#]beautiful and w[G#]hite
If [D#]I so much as [Cm]blink an eye I could [Bb]lose her in this light
[G#]Out here in this deserted land the fu[Bb]ture looks so vast
[G#]Like every little grain of sand and ev[Bb]ery blade of grass
I’m a[D#]lone[G#] but not a[D#]lone
[Cm]Something inside me is [G#]trying to guide me [D#]on my long way back home
I’m a[D#]lone[G#] but not al[D#]one
Only with these stolen words can I unpack my heart
While you rise from the ashes I feel free in the dark
I swear I feel your humid breath so soft inside my ear
The day they lay my soul to rest I swear I’ll meet you there
Out here on this great expanse the wind cries over my head
At night I hear the natives dance in circles round my bed
I’m alone but not alone
Something quite near me is trying to steer me
It’s a long way back home
I’m a[D#]lone[G#] but not a[D#]lone
[G#]Goodbye Cali[Bb]fornia, [G#]Goodbye Tenne[Bb]ssee,
[G#]Goodbye sweet Caro[Bb]lina, don’t [G#]worry about [Bb]me
I’m alone but not alone
Something so strong is leading me on my long way back home
I’m alone but not alone
