Alone But Not Alone Eb Ab Eb Ab I’m stretched out like a canvas ‘neath a blue and endless sky Eb Cm Bb Staring up through cattle bones as cotton balls roll by Eb Ab Eb Ab I swear I see a rose up there so beautiful and white Eb Cm Bb If I so much as blink an eye I could lose her in this light Ab Bb Out here in this deserted land the future looks so vast Ab Bb Like every little grain of sand and every blade of grass Eb Ab Eb I’m alone but not alone Cm Ab Eb Something inside me is trying to guide me on my long way back home Eb Ab Eb I’m alone but not alone Only with these stolen words can I unpack my heart While you rise from the ashes I feel free in the dark I swear I feel your humid breath so soft inside my ear The day they lay my soul to rest I swear I’ll meet you there Out here on this great expanse the wind cries over my head At night I hear the natives dance in circles round my bed I’m alone but not alone Something quite near me is trying to steer me It’s a long way back home Eb Ab Eb I’m alone but not alone Ab Bb Ab Bb Goodbye California, Goodbye Tennessee, Ab Bb Ab Bb Goodbye sweet Carolina, don’t worry about me I’m alone but not alone Something so strong is leading me on my long way back home I’m alone but not alone by: José Duarte jtduarte1@gmail.com
