              Intro: Em7 A9 Em7 A7/9- D7M B7 Em7 A7/13- 
 
Em7 A7/13- D7M A7/9 Fdim D7M  Bm7 E7 
In   my  solitude         you haunt me 
     Em7     A9 Em7   A7/9-       D7M  B7 Em7 A7/13- 
With reveries      of days gone by 
Em7 A7/13- D7M  A7/9 Fdim D7M  Bm7 E7 
In   my  solitude          you taunt me 
     Em7     A9      A7/9-   D  D7M D7 
With memories   that never die 
  G          G6        Fdim 
I sit in my chair, filled with despair  
        D            A7   A7/13+   D7 
There's no one could be  so  sad 
      G            G6                 Fdim 
With gloom ev'rywhere, I sit and I stare 
   D             B7      Em7  A7/13- 
I know that I'll soon go mad 
Em7 A7/13- D7M A7/9 Fdim D7M Bm7 E7 
 In my  solitude,       I'm praying 
     Em7   A7   Em7     Edim     D    A7 Gdim D7M 
Dear Lord above,   send back my love

  G          G6        Fdim 
I sit in my chair, filled with despair  
        D            A7   A7/13+   D7 
There's no one could be  so  sad 
      G            G6                 Fdim 
With gloom ev'rywhere, I sit and I stare 
   D             B7      Em7  A7/13- 
I know that I'll soon go mad 
Em7 A7/13- D7M A7/9 Fdim D7M Bm7 E7 
 In my  solitude,       I'm praying 
     Em7   A7   Em7     Edim     D    A7 Gdim D7M 
Dear Lord above,   send back my love
