CAPO: 2nd FRET KEY: E PLAY: D
Like a D bird that's D7 lost its mate in G flight
I'm a-A7 lone and oh, so blue to-D night
Like a piece of D7 driftwood on the G sea
May you A7 never be alone like D me.
I believed the D7 lies you told to G me
When you A7 whispered, "Dear, I worship D thee!"
Now here am D7 I alone and G blue
All be-A7 cause I loved no one but D you.
I gave up my D7 friends, I left my G home
When you A7 promised to be mine a-D lone
Now you're gone, our D7 love could never G be
May you A7 never be alone like D me.
In the bible, D7 God's own words do G say
For A7 ev'ry wrong some day you'll D pay
I pray the D7 Lord to set me G free
May you A7 never be alone like D me.
