[Intro] Bm7E7 (2x)
[Verse 1] Bm7E7 You're just a mile away Bm7E7 One thousand five tiny steps from here G But if I brought you near AE7Bm7E7Bm7 Would you believe when I say
[Verse 2] Bm7E7 It seems like yesterday Bm7E7 That I could reach out and touch your face G But as I fall from grace AE7Bm7E7Bm7 Into whose arms can I lay
[Bridge 1] F#G5A5 / G5* F# It's always much too late E We get the signs F#G5A5 / G5* F# We can't communicate GA** Or turn back time
[Chorus] BF#m So what will be now A Do you feel somehow EB Not so together and not quite as strong F#m*** Now I believe DAF#m Alone doesn't have to mean lonely EBm7 After you've gone
[Verse 3] I need a healing wind To cool the flame burning in my sight It must accelerate For two wrongs they don't make a right
[Bridge 2] And all these solitaires, lone victories Wars fought in isolation, with none to please
[Chorus]
[Instrumental break] Bm7E7GE7 (2x)
[Bridge 3] The future's still uncertain The past is done
[Chorus]
Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone
Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone
