F                                   Em
Don't want to be alone again, to be alone again
                                           Dm
To be my only friend, to try and remember when
                                    G
I didn't care about the past, the child in my heart lies within its grasp

       F                                   Em
Don't want to be alone again, to be alone again
                                           Dm
To be my only friend, to try and remember when
                                      G
I wasn't hanging out to dry, I will never let the child in my heart die

F Em Dm G


[Chorus]

     F        Dm           C   Dm     Bb
My lover, I loved her, I wrote her a poem
     F           Dm       C  Dm      Bb
I dropped by and met her, on my way home
       F         Dm             C Dm     Bb
She's gone, who are you, she's gone, who are you
    F                 Dm               C   Dm        Bb
I never expected that I had detested being so on my own


[Verse 2]

       F                                   Em
Don't want to be alone again, to be alone again
                                           Dm
To be my only friend, to try and remember when
                                    G
I didn't care about the past, the child in my heart lies within its grasp

       F                                   Em
Don't want to be alone again, to be alone again
                                           Dm
To be my only friend, to try and remember when
                                      G
I wasn't hanging out to dry, I will never let the boy in my heart die
