[Amaj7]He made me laugh
[A7]He made me cry
[Dmaj7]He smoked his stogies in [Dm6]bed
But I'm [Amaj7]all right[F#m7]
I'm [B7]all right
I've [Bm7]been lonely [E9]before
[Amaj7]I asked the boy for a [A7]few kind words
[Dmaj7]He gave me a novel in[Dm6]stead
But I'm [Amaj7]all right[F#m7]
I'm [B7]all right
[Bm7]I've been [E9]lonely be[Amaj7]fore[A7]
It's [Dmaj7]fine, it's [Dm6]OK
It was [Amaj7]wrong either [A7]way
[Dmaj7]I just wanted to [D9]say
There [Amaj7]isn't much [F#m7]fun when you're d[Bm7]rinking for o[E9]ne
[Amaj7]He got drunk, [A7]he fell down
[Dmaj7]He threw a few of my [Dm6]things around
But I'm [Amaj7]all right[F#m7]
I'm [B7]all right
[Bm7]I've been [E9]lonely be[Amaj7]fore[A7]
I'd [Dmaj7]like to be[Dm6]lieve that it's [Amaj7]easy to [A7]leave
But [Dmaj7]I have to con[D9]ceive that wher[Amaj7]ever you [F#m7]are
You're still [Bm7]driving my [E9]car
[Amaj7]Sticks and stones'll [A7]break my bones
But [Dmaj7]tears don't leave any [Dm6]scars
So I'm [Amaj7]all right[F#m7]
I'm [B7]all right
[Bm7]I've been [E9]lonely [A6/9]before
