Intro: Gm Gm Gm Cm (2x) 


Gm	           Cm           
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again, 
Gm                             D7 
How can we pretend we've never met? 
Gm	  	  Cm		 
Hello, Alone you might as well come in, 
Gm	          D7		   Gm 
We've been making bets for so long now. 



	Cm		Gm 
I never told you that I want you, 
	    Cm		      Gm  	 
I thought I had you out of my head,     
    Cm 
But ever time she leaves me, refusing to believe me, 
	D7 
You're always there. 



			  Gm		Cm 
And even though I don't invite you, 
			Gm	Ebmaj7 
And your presence is a pain, 
Eb				D 
You always let me be just who I am, 
Eb				    D 
Until I'm glad to bring back that refrain again, 



Gm	           Cm           
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again, 
Gm                             D7 
How can we pretend we've never met? 
Gm	  	  Cm		 
Hello, Alone you might as well come in, 
Gm	           D7		      Gm 
We've been shaking hands for too long now. 



	Cm		Gm 
I even tried to re-convince you, 
	    Cm		      Gm  
But it was just no use at all, 
    Cm 
Cause every time I climbed inside your mind, 
			D7 
I saw the mirror on the wall. 



			    Gm	      Cm 
But it's no use to pose the question, 
		     Gm	       Ebmaj7 
When the answers never sheen, 
Eb			      D 
And then I have to face up to the facts 
Eb				  Ebsus4	Eb 
With saxophones and old trombones carrying me home to say 



Abm                C#m          
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again, 
Abm                            Eb7 
How can we pretend we've never met? 
Abm	        C#m 
Hello alone you might as well come in, 
Abm               Eb7		 
We've been making bets for too long... 



C#m 
Perhaps I'll take a holiday, 
			C#sus4  
And get as far away as I can, 
C#m 
But then I'd just be far away, 
			      Eb7 
And just as a much a lonesome man, 

With his hat in his hands chanting. 



Abm                C#m          
Hello, Alone, it's you and me again,

Abm	        C#m 
Hello alone you might as well come in, 
Abm               Eb7		    Abm 
We've been making bets for too long now 

Abm               Eb7		   Abm 
We've been making bets for so long now 

Abm               Eb7	      C#m     Eb7     Abm 
We've been making bets for so long....so long now
