Been Alone So Long

{tuning: Standard (EADGBE)}
B[G]een alone so long

t[D]hat I've forgotten what it's like

 [C] to feel somebody next to me

a[Em]nd  hear her breathing peacefully

w[D]hen I wake up [G]at n[D]i-g[C]-ht.

w[Em]ake up at night

B[G]een alone so long

t[D]hat I've forgotten what to say--

 [C] if I meet somebody who

m[Em]ight easily resemble you

I[D] smile, but look a-[G]w-a[D]-y.[C]..

 [Em]       I look away.

B[G]een alone so long

t[D]hat I've forgotten what to do:

 [C] how to make the whole thing right

a[Em]nd how to help if she's uptight

a[C]nd when to run and when to fight...

h[Em]ow to make her stay the night--

 [D]          [G]    [D]   [C]
{sot}that's if I ever knew-----{eot}

I[Em]f I ever knew.

B[G]een alone so long

 [Em]          wake up at night

{Sax solo again. Repeat the sax solo chords, then again repeat the chord
sequence of a verse - with the sax playing, and end with the solo chords once
more.}

Have fun! (A rather jolly song about a painful subject, but still enjoyable!)
