Verse 1 

A5         F5              G5 
I hear the ticking of the clock 
       C5 - G5        A5               F5    G5    C5 - G5  
I'm lying here the room's pitch dark 
A5       F5             G5 
I wonder where you are tonight 
      C5 - G5      A5           F5    G5   C5 - G5 
No answer on the telephone 

Refrain 
A5                       F5          C5    G5 
And the night goes by so very slow 
A5                       F5          C5    G5 
Oh I hope that it won't end though 
C5 
Alone... 

Chorus 
F#5 - D5    A5          E5            F#5 
Till now I always got by on my own 
F#5 - D5        A5             E5       F#5 
I never really cared until I met you 
F#5 - D5    A5                 E5  
And now it chills me to the bone 
A5        D5       E5 
How do I get you alone 
A5        D5       E5 
How do I get you alone 

Verse 2 
A5             F5               G5 
You don't know how long I have wanted 
C5             G5        A5               F5    G5    C5 - G5 
to touch your lips and hold you tight,oh 
A5             F5               G5 
You don't know how long I have waited 
C5         G5        A5          F5    G5    C5 - G5 
and I was going to tell you tonight 

Refrain 


        A5        F5        C5    G5 
But the secret is still my own 
        A5             F5     C5        G5 
and my love for you is still unknown 
C5 
Alone....

I never really cared until I met you

And now it chills me to the bone 
A5        D5       E5

How do I get you alone
