Gene Clark (No Other album 1974)
[G]
[G]Some walk out [D]winners[C] of those who've [Am]lost[G]
Can it be [D]said at any [C6]price this is the [C]cost
[G]Hard is [D]perception,[C] easier is [Am]blame
[G]Is this the [D]only life for [C][D]everyone, isn't it the [G]same?
[G]Children [D]laugh[C] and run [Am]away[G]
While others [D]look into the [C6]darkness of the [C]day
[G]Some streets are [D]easy[C] while some are [Am]cruel
[G]Could these be [D]reasons why [C]man is [D]life's greatest [G]fool?
[D]Do you believe when [A]you're all alone?
You held the [C]key to your [G]destiny gone
[D]Do you believe, [A]deep in your soul[C]
That too much loneliness [G]makes you grow [D]cold?
Break
[G]Words can be [D]empty[C] though filled with [Am]sound
[G]Stoned, numb and [D]drifting, [C]hard to be profound
[G]Formed out of [D]pleasure,[C] chiseled by [Am]pain
[G]Never the [D]highest and [C]not the [D]last one to [G]gain
[D]Do you believe when [A]you're all alone?
You held the [C]key to your [G]destiny gone
[D]Do you believe, [A]deep in your soul[C]
That too much loneliness [G]makes you grow [D]cold?
Break
[D]Do you believe when [A]you're all alone?
You held the [C]key to your [G]destiny gone
[D]Do you believe when [A]you're all alone?
You held the [C]key to your [G]destiny gone . . .
