G D
She calls on the people
D Em
She says she doesn't want to be alone
Em
She says it's making her neurotic
A
But please don't mistake it for being erotic
Chorus
A D A D A D A D
So alone, so all alone
G D
She says let's go for a walk
D Em
We'll have a drink and maybe we will talk
Em
And he thinks she has possibilities
A
If she could just put away her rosary -
A D A D A D A D
So alone Nobody wants to be alone
G D
But I just didn't know
D Em
I swear to you, I just didn't know
G D
I would never make you sad
D Em
If I had known I never would have Said those
D Am D Am D Am D Am
things to you ... You have to be crazy to say those things to you
G D
Let's face it I made a mistake
D Em
Well you know, fools rush in where angels take a break
Em
I Can't be smart all of the time
A
And anyway I didn't know you were making time Over him
A D A D A D A D
To tell you the truth I forget all about him
G D
And You know, I don't think it's nice
D Em
Asking one man about another man's vice
Em
I don't care if you pick my head -
A
As long as we end up in bed
A D A D A D A D
Alone Just the two of us alone
G D
I just didn't know
D Em
I swear to God
I just didn't know
G D
Can't you understand that it's frightening
D Em
When you hear women talking about castrating
D Am D Am D Am D Am
and hating men Who wants to know about how you hate men
Bridge:
C C [ch]D Am D Am
C C D Am D Am
F Am Am F F Am Am F
Well You said now you wanted to dance
So now we're going to dance
You said that you weren't complete
But we're going to put you on your feet
F Am Am F F Am Am F
You said that you were very vexed
You told me to forget about sex
You said you liked me for my mind
Well I really love your behind
A#m A#m D#m A#m A#m D#m
Get up and boogie, get up and dance
Get up and boogie, get up and dance
A#m A#m D#m
Shake your booty, get up and dance
D D
G D
Your points very clear
D Em
You're not one to cry into your beer
Em
Why don't we go to my place -
A
Believe me, I'm very chaste
A D A D A D A D
And I'm so alone
So all alone
G D
Sure all men are beasts
D Em
Hey, look, I'll sit here quietly and I'll stare at my feet
Em
I don't blame you for taking umbrage
A
With animals staring at your cleavage
A D A D A D A D
So alone We're so all alone
G D
Hey, do you mind if I turn out the light
D Em
Don't take offense, but why don't you spend the night
G D
I know your passions run very deep
D Em
But at this point we both need sleep
D Am D Am D Am D Am
So alone And who wants to be alone
