ALONE AGAIN, NATURALLY  Gilbert O'Sullivan

Intro
[Dmaj7]   [D6] 
[F#m7]   [F#7sus4]   [F#m7] 
[Em7]   [A7b9]   [D] 
.
Verse 1
[Dmaj7]                   [D6] 
In a little while from now,
       [F#m7]                 [F#7sus4] 
If I'm not feeling any less sour
  [Am7] 
I promised myself to treat myself
    [F#m7]]         [B7]
And visit a nearby tower,
      [Em7]
And climbing to the top,
       [Em7]         [Gm6]
Will throw myself off
      [D]                 [Daug]
In an effort to make it clear to who
     [D6]                         [C#7]
Ever what it's like when you're shattered
     [F#m]                          Am
Left standing in the lurch, at a church
                [B7]  
Where people're say___ing,
    [Em7]
"My God that's tough, she stood him up!
    [Em7]           [Gm6]
No point in us remaining.
  [Dmaj7]           [D6]
We may as well go home."
    [F#m] [F#m7]  [B9]
As I did on my own...
[Refrain]
  [Em7]       [A7b9]     [D]
Alone again, naturally
[Verse 2]
    [Dmaj7]                  [D6]
To think that only yesterday,
      [F#m7]                [F#7sus4]
I was cheerful, bright and gay,
         [Am7]
Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do,
     [F#m7]               [B7]
The role I was about to play
       [Em7]
But as if to knock me down,
   [Em7]         [Gm6]
Rea__lity came around
      [D]                  [Daug]
And without so much as a mere touch,
       [D6]          [C#7]
Cut me into little pieces
[F#m]
Leaving me to doubt,
          [Am]           [B7]
Talk about God and His mer___cy
     [Em7]
Who if He really does exist
[Em7]b5             [Gm6]
Why did He desert me
[Dmaj7]          [D6]
In my hour of need?
    [F#m] [F#m7]  [B9]
I truly am in__deed,
[Refrain]
  [Em7]       [A7b9]     [D]
Alone again, naturally
[Bridge]
    [F]
It seems to me that
There are more hearts
[C7]              [C7/Bb]
broken in the world
               [Em7]
that can't be mended
[A7]       [F]
Left unattended
[Bm7]        [Amaj7]             [A9/E]   [A7]
What do we do?___ What do we do?
[Interlude: Flamenco Guitar]
[Dmaj7]   [D6]   [F#m7]  [F#7sus4]
[Am7]     [F#m7]   [B7]  [B7]
[Em7]     [Em7]b5
[D]   [Daug]   [D6]   [C#7]
[F#m]  [Am]   [B7]   [B7]
[Em7]   [Em7]b5   [Gm6]
[Dmaj7]   [D6]   [F#m]  [F#m7]   [B9]
[Refrain]
  [Em7]      [A7b9]     [D]
Alone again, naturally
[Verse 3]
    [Dmaj7]                  [D6]
Now looking back over the years,
        [F#m7]             [F#7sus4]
And whatever else that appears
     [Am7]
I remember I cried when my father died
      [F#m7]               [B7] [B7]
Never wishing to hide the tears
        [Em7]
And at sixty five years old,
    [Em7]
My mother, God rest her soul,
      [D]                  [Daug]
Couldn't understand, why the only man
        [D6]                  [C#7]
She had ever loved had been taken
[F#m]                         [Am]
Leaving her to start with a heart
         [B7]  [B7]
So badly bro___ken
    [Em7]
Despite encouragement from me
     [Em7]b5         [Gm6]
No words were ever spoken
    [Dmaj7]             [D6]
And when she passed away
    [F#m]      [F#m7]    [B9]
I cried and cried all day
[Refrain/Ending]
  [Em7]      [A7b9] [D/F#]   [F#m7]   [B7]
Alone again, naturally
  [Em7]       [A7b9]  [A7]  [D]
Alone again,______naturally
