I don’t want to be alone tonight (1978)    (video)

 

    Em - A - D    - A

 

                 D                                     A

1. Your phone's gonna ring in the darkness of night

                     A                                           D

    and you'll rise from the bed where you lay.

                      D                                     A

    And you'll answer 'Hello', and from out of the past

         A                                               D

    a voice you once loved is gonna say :

 

D                           Em       A                                    D

I don't wanna be alone tonight, I don't wanna be alone,

           G                       A                          D

and I had to call someone who used to care.

D                           Em       A                                    D

I don't wanna be alone tonight, I don't wanna be alone,

       G                         A                            D

so say that you still want me and I'll be there.

 

+  Em - A - D  - Bm - G - A - D   - A

 

                  D                                          A

2. Maybe someday you'll lie there and look at the rain,

      A                           D

    feeling afraid and alone.

         D                               A

    A feeling of hunger you just can't explain,

              A                                       D

    and you'll be the voice on the phone.

 

+  CHORUS ....
