    another lonely day, with no one here but me.

    A year has passed since I wrote my note,
         D              A            Em              D   A   Em
    but I should have known this right from the start.

    Only hope can keep me together,

    a hundred billion bottles, washed up on the shore.

    Seems I'm not alone at being alone,
