On My Own

D       Em             D         D/C#  
On my own, pretending hes beside me,  
     Bm        E               A        Am7  
All alone, I walk with him till morning,  
   G           F#7            Bm  
Without him, I feel his arms around me,  
    Em                                            A  
And when I lose my way I close my eyes and he has found me.  

        D        Em/D            D          D/C#  
In the rain the pavement shines like silver  
         Bm         E7           A    A/G#  
All the lights are misty in the river  
      G              F#7               Bm  
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight  
    Em                         Em/D         A  
And all I see is him and me for ever and forever  

      Bb        G#7        Bb     Bb/A  
And I know its only in my mind,  
         Gm           Gm7          Eb  
That Im talking to myself and not to him,  
      Em                       B     B7  
And although I know that he is blind,  
        C             C7  
Still I say theres a way for us.  

  F             Gm                F    F/E  
I love him, but when the night is over,  
      Dm        G              C    Cm7  
He is gone, the rivers just a river,  
  Bb            A7              Dm  
Without him the world around me changes,  
    Gm                                                    C  
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers.  

I love him, But every day I'm learning  
        Dm        G7         C  
All my life I've only been pretending  
   Bb           A7                Dm  
Without me his world will go on turning  
   Gm                                 Gm/F           C  
A world that's full of happiness, that I have never known  

F           F7          Bb  
I love him, I love him, I love him,  
    F#7        F  
But only on my own.
