Alone Tonight

D#m                           
Slipping sideways, silver stars 
     G#    B
collide
    D#m                         
And fade away just like our love 
      G#   B
that died
             G#m            
And there is nowhere in this 
             A#m           B      
universe to hide from you 
F   E
toniiiight
                   D#m          
I've wrestled with angels all my 
     G#     B
life
                   D#m             
It's always the halos and the wings
                    G#   B
 that keep you blind
             G#m              
And if I'd fought with all the 
                    A#m
strength I held inside
              B                 G#m
I wouldn't be out here alone tonight
                          D#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
                          F#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
                          D#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
                          F#m
I wouldn't be standing alone tonight

[Chorus]

D#m       C#                G#m
Alone tonight just like the western 
star, I'm sinking.
B          C#               
The angels curse me blind with 
   B
straight and crooked thinking
D#m       C#                 G#m
Alone tonight just like the western 
star, I'm sinking.
B          C#               
The angels curse me blind with 
    G#m
straight and crooked thinking


[Verse 2]

          D#m                      
I’ve been crossing out the words I 
          G#    B
left unsaid
           D#m                     
From the epilog flying in my head
           G#    B

                  G#m            
Where there is poetry and tragedy 
        A#m
unread
      B        F   E
Until toniiiiight
                  D#m              
There’s no other angel, quite like 
   G#    B
you
                  D#m
They broke the mold a thousand 
pieces
            G#   B
I see through
           G#m                     
Though I tried to realign them, 
    A#m
like I do
          B
You went your own way
          G#m
And I did to
    A#
So here I am


[Chorus]

D#m       C#                G#m
Alone tonight just like the western 
star, I'm sinking.
B          C#               
The angels curse me blind with 
   B
straight and crooked thinking
D#m       C#                 G#m
Alone tonight just like the western 
star, I'm sinking.
B          C#                  
The angels curse me blind with 
G#m
straight and crooked thinking
