Lyrics
I Alone DmDm hammer GmA7 DmDm hammer GmA7 GmGmC7Dm GmGmDmA7 Fancy free the way I used to feel Happily watching my life from reel to reel Playing games set my aim on the prize Till I fell into the well of your eyes Counting days you know it’s true till you Fly away - into the blue I see my dreams blowing leaves in the wind I set my face for the race to the end BbBbFC Dm FGAmG BbBbFC Dm FGBbA7 I alone- that’s the way it’s gonna be I alone better get used to my own company I alone without the shadow of a doubt I alone is how the future’s panning out You and me I thought that it would last Totally but my hopes are fading fast Broken heart torn apart by a friend Heave a sigh, hope bye and bye it will mend It will mend
