Alone - Jeff Tweedy

D                     G
Shakin' sugar from a sugar spoon
D                 A
Peppermint tea afternoon

Alone, alone, alone

D                     G
Taking a shower take another nap
D                    A
Watching television take a bath

Alone, alone, alone

G
Feel like a book, but I just cant start it

Feel like a lover, brokenhearted

Look in the mirror at the face in the glass

Look like a question no one ever asks

G
Alone
Cm               G
Like I'm supposed to be
G
Lone lonely alone
Cm                G
Like I'm supposed to be

D                    G               
Go for a walk, go for a drive
D                      C
Listen to the stereo stay inside

Alone, alone, alone

G
Feel like a book, but I just cant start it

Feel like a lover, brokenhearted

Look in the mirror at the face in the glass

Look like a question no one ever asks


G
Alone
Cm               G
Like I'm supposed to be
G
Lone lonely alone
Cm                G
Like I'm supposed to be

D                     G
Shakin' sugar from a tablespoon
D                         A
Bitter black coffee underneath the moon

Alone, alone, alone


Feel like a book with a big ghost heart

I didn't finish, I didn't start it

Look in the mirror at the face in the glass

Look like a question no one ever asks


G
Alone
Cm               G
Like I'm supposed to be
G
Lone lonely alone
Cm                G
Like I'm supposed to be
