D                            G
Time in love and whippoowill
    D                                  A
One passing one gone and one lonesome still
G                     D
Bare naked rain of a silverless cloud
      A        D  A  D
I'm alone now

D                                 G
Everyone's talking about your new friend
            D        A            D        A
With that old mayan smile and the elephant pen
   G                        D 
And legs like Ry Peters standing over the crowd
     A          D A D
I'm alone now
    G               D
But baby I've got a melody
       Bm                     G       D
And a few things to say about you and me
           G                      D         Bm
And an old heavy heart that ain't ready to leave
     A           D         A          G    D
It's here but I don't know how to be alone now

D                                G
Coffee at dawn and a big mess of eggs
D             A           D           A
Running the morning hours down to the drags
G                       D
Drunk with fidelity and reading old vowes
     A         D  A  D
I'm alone now

D                                    G
Peace in the valley and mules in the grass
D           A              D             A        
Feet at the threshold and brains in the past
             G                       D       
I've got my hand in my ears for that mockingbird song
          A        D  A  D
And I'm alone now

    G                D            
But baby I've got a melody
       Bm                     G       D       
And a few things to say about you and me
       G                            D       Bm
And an old heavy heart that ain't ready to leave
     D           A          D          G   D
It's here and I don't know how to be alone now
     G      D  A  D  A  D  G  D
I'm alone now
