[Verse 1]

A
When I was young
        Dm        A   Em
I never needed anyone
           F#                Bm   Dm  
And makin' love was just for fun
               A   Dm E7
Those days are gone

[Verse 2]

A
Livin' alone
           Dm                   A     Em
I think of all the friends I've known
           F#           Bm    Dm
But when I dial the telephone
         A   Dm E7
Nobody's home

[Refrain]

A         C#m
 All by myself
               Em    F#   Bm      Dm   E
Don't wanna be,  all by myself anymore
A         C#m
 All by myself
                 Em    F#   Bm      Dm   E E7
Don't wanna live,  all by myself anymore

[Verse 3]

A
Hard to be sure
            Dm          A    Em
Sometimes I feel so insecure
            F#             Bm   Dm
And love so distant and obscure
            A   Dm E7
Remains the cure

[Refrain]

A         C#m
 All by myself
               Em    F#   Bm      Dm  E
Don't wanna be,  all by myself anymore
A         C#m
 All by myself
                 Em    F#   Bm      Dm  E E7
Don't wanna live,  all by myself anymore
