Solitaire (video) (intro) (midi)

C - D

1. There was a man, a lonely man,

G C - G - G7

who lost his love through his indifference.

C - D

A heart that cares, that went unshared,

G C - G - G7

and slowly dies within his silence.

C

Now solitaire's the only game in town,

Am

and every road that takes me, takes me down,

Dm G C - G - G7

I find myself it's easy to pretend, I'll never love again.

C

And deep into myself I play the game,

Am

without your love it always ends the same,

Dm G C - G - G7

while life goes on around me everywhere, I'm playing Solitaire.

C - D

2. Another day, a lonely day,

G C - G - G7

so much to say that goes unspoken.

C - D

And through the night, each sleepless night,

G C - G - G7

the eyes are closed, the heart is broken.

C

Now solitaire's the only game in town,

Am

and every road that takes me, takes me down,

Dm G C - G - G7

I find myself it's easy to pretend, you’re coming back again.

C

And deep into myself I play the game,

Am

without your love it always ends the same,

Dm G C - G - G7

while life goes on around me everywhere, I'm playing Solitaire.

C Am

Solitaire's the only game in town,

F - G - C - G - G7

and every road that takes me, takes me down,

+ C - Am - F - G ....
