| 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 |

| Gmaj9 | |
| Always end up alone |
| CHORUS |
| D | Bm7 | |
| So I play, (Sha' la) I'll wait (I' | ll wait) |
| Em7 | |
| 'Cause y | ou 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 |

| And I do | n't want to be | alone |
| VERSE |
| 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 |
