Intro 
Fmaj7 F6 Am7    F6 
         (naturally) 
Fmaj7 F6 Am7    F6 
         (naturally) 

 
F                      F6 
In a little while from now, 
       Am7                  A7 
If I'm not feeling any less sour 
  Cm7 
I promised myself to treat myself 
    Am7            D7 
And visit a nearby tower, 
      Gm7 
And climbing to the top, 
                  A#m6 
Will throw myself off 
      F 
In an effort to make it clear to who 
     F6                         E7 
Ever what it's like when you're shattered 
     Am                           Cm 
Left standing in the lurch, at a church 
                D7 
Where people saying, 
   Gm7 
My God that's tough, she stood him up 
    Gm7(b5)           A#m6 
No point in us remaining 
  Fmaj7           F6 
We may as well go home 
    Am  Am7  D9 
As I did on my own 
  Gm7      C7        F         F6 Am7    F6 
Alone again, naturally (naturally, naturally) 
 

 
    F                    F6 
To think that only yesterday, 
      Am7                  A7 
I was cheerful, bright and gay, 
         Cm7 
Looking forward to, well who wouldn't do, 
     Am7                 D7 
The role I was about to play 
       Gm7 
But as if to knock me down, 
               A#m6 
Reality came around 
      F 
And without so much as a simple touch, 
       F6          E7 
Cut me into little pieces 
Am 
Leaving me to doubt, 
          Cm            D7 
Talk about God and His mercy 
    Gm7 
Who if He really does exist 
    Gm7               A#m6 
Oh, why did He desert me 
F              F6 
In my hour of need 
    Am  Am7  D9 
I truly am indeed, 
  Gm7       C7     F          F6 
Alone again, naturally (naturally) 
 

 
    G# 
It seems to me that 

There are more hearts 
D#7 
Broken in the world 
               Gm7 
That can't be mended 
C7        G# 
Left unattended 
Dm7        Cmaj7 
What do we do 
              C9/G   C7 
What do we do 
 

 
F                      F6 
Looking back over the years, 
        Am7              A7 
And whatever else that appeared 
     Cm7 
I remember I cried when my father died 
      Am7                  D7 
Never wishing to hide the tears 
        Gm7 
And at sixty five years old, 

My mother, God rest her soul, 
          F 
Couldn't understand, why the only man 
        F6                  E7 
She had ever loved had been taken 
Am                          Cm 
Leaving her to start with a heart 
          D7 
So badly broken 
    Gm7 
Despite encouragement from me 
                   A#m6 
No words were ever spoken 
    Fmaj7             F6 
And when she passed away 
    Am       Am7    D9 
I cried and cried all day 
 

Outro 
  Gm7           F          F6 
Alone again, naturally (naturally) 
  Gm7       C7(b9)     F         F6 
Alone again, naturally (naturally)
