My First Night Alone Without You chords by Bonnie Raitt

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
Am G F G

Verse 1:
Am            G           F   F G
There is an aching in my head
Am        C               Dm  Am
From the bed I can't get used to
Am                  G                    F    F G
It's these little hours in the dark, I dread
Am                    C           Dm    Am
As I spend my first night alone without you

Verse 2:
Am       G                  F   F G
Honey, half of me has gone away
Am             C                Dm   Am
With all the love I learned to cling to
Am                     G            F   F G
Tomorrow I'll have to find another way
Am           C                      Dm    Am    Dm Am
To live the rest of my life alone without you

Chorus:
 C                    Em
You taught me how to live
       F    G
How to be myself
            Am
And how to give
        Em        F
Oh, but now it's you
        Em  F  Dm     G
Who's given up on giving

Bridge:
 C                     Em
You've lost the thing, no one to teach
    F         G
Changing and now you're out of reach
       Dm                 C                 G
And my life tonight just don't seem worth living
F   G
No, no

Chorus:
Am            G                    F   F G
I've been sitting learning how to read
Am              C              Dm  Am
Cause back in school I never liked to
Am                       G                      F    F G
It's just one of those little things I'm gonna need
Am                  C              Dm    Am
As I put my life together, baby, without you

Outro:
Dm C G Am
G F Dm
