[Verse]
F
Why did you walk away
C/B
What can I say
Am
Ain't much to do
Bb

N.C.  F
Oh so blue
E7
And lonely I'd be
Am
Without you
C

N.C.     F                       E                 Am
But I'll never never never never never never never change my mind
Bb

F
Ohh what can I lay for you
E
Ain't nothing better to do
Am                       Bb  C
My momma told me when I was young

F                    E7
Ohhhh by myself again It'll never end
Am        Bb    C                                   F
By myself again doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo mmmmm
F
Here in New York
E
In the afternoon
Am
I'm passing the time away
Bb          C
In somebody else's room

[Chorus]
F
Ohhhh...
E       Am C
Solitude

[Bridge]
G
Every morning when I get up
A tune of that I can reek in my cup
And I wrote it in a sugar bowl
Every morning just to soothe my soul

[Verse 2]
F
In the afternoon
E
In some stranger's room
Am                     Bb
Wishing that I was dead

[Chorus]
F                 E        Am      C
Ooohhhh..... Such solitude oooohhhh

[Verse 3]
F                     E
It wasn't so bad if I knew what was happening
Am                      Bb
But my head was full of dope

F
Ahhh... Fooled again by
E
A lot of cocaine... I
Am
Drifted home
C
But

F
What can I do late at night
E
Everything felt uptight now
Am                         Bb  C
I promise myself I'd never lose

F              E
In a lonely room
Em            D G
I let the blues
Em                    Eb
When I sung best too soon
G            Dbm
It left this room
C
Mmm...
F
