G5                 C5          
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again,
G5                             D5
How can we pretend we've never met?
G5                C5            
Hello, Alone you might as well come in,
G5                D5               G5
We've been making bets for so long now.



      C5            G5
I never told you that I want you,
          C5                  G5        
I thought I had you out of my head,    
    C5
But ever time she leaves me, refusing to believe me,
      D5
You're always there.



                    G5            C5
And even though I don't invite you,
                  G5      Eb5
And your presence is a pain,
Eb5                        D5
You always let me be just who I am ,
Eb5                            D5
Until I'm glad to bring back that refrain again,



G5                 C5          
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again,
G5                             D5
How can we pretend we've never met?
G5                C5            
Hello, Alone you might as well come in,
G5                 D5                  G5
We've been shaking hands for too long now.



      C5            G5
I even tried to re-convince you,
          C5                  G5 
But it was just no use at all,
    C5
Cause every time I climbed inside your mind,
                  D5
I saw the mirror on the wall.



                      G5            C5
But it's no use to pose the question,
                 G5             Eb5
When the answers never sheen,
Eb5                        D5
And then I have to face up to the facts
Eb5                          Eb5      Eb5
With saxophones and old trombones carrying me home to say



Ab5                C#5         
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again,
Ab5                            Eb5
How can we pretend we've never met?
Ab5              C#5
Hello alone you might as well come in,
Ab5               Eb5            
We've been making bets for too long...



C#5
Perhaps I'll take a holiday,
                  C#5 
And get as far away as I can,
C#5
But then I'd just be far away,
                        Eb5
And just as a much a lonesome man,

With his hat in his hands chanting.



Ab5                C#5         
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again,
Ab5                            Eb5
How can we pretend we've never met?
Ab5              C#5
Hello alone you might as well come in,
Ab5               Eb5                Ab5
We've been making bets for too long now

Ab5               Eb5               Ab5
We've been making bets for so long now

Ab5               Eb5            C#5     Eb5     Ab5
We've been making bets for so long....so long now
