D D6 Dmaj7 Oh In a little while from now F#m7 If I`m not feeling any less sour Am Am7 I promise myself to treat myself F#m7b5 B7 And visit a nearby tower Em And climbing to the top Gm Gm7 Will throw myself off D Daug In an effort to make clear to whom ever D6 C#7 What it`s like when you`re shattered F#m7 Left standing in the lurch F#m7b5 B7 At a church where people saying Em My God that`s tough she stood him up Gm Gm7 No point in us remaining Dmaj7 We may as well go home F#m7 B7 As I did on my own Em7 A7 D Alone again naturally D6 Dmaj7 To think that only yesterday F#m7 I was cheerful bright and gay Am Am7 Looking forward to well who wouldn`t do F#m7b5 B7 The role I was about to play Em7 But as if to knock me down Gm Reality came around D Daug And without so much as a mere touch D6 C#7 Cut me into little pieces F#m7 Leaving me to doubt F#m7b5 B7 Talk about God in His mercy Em7 Who if He really does exist Gm Gm7 Why did He desert me Dmaj7 D6 In my hour of need F#m7 B7 I truly am indeed Em7 A7 D Alone again naturally F It seems to me that there are more hearts C Gm Broken in the world that can`t be mended A7 F Bm7b5 Left unattended Amaj7 What do we do Em A What do we do....
