  			N.C.    E                             A 
Lookin' back thru the years, I saw my anger 
          E                       B7 
There was things that I could not control 
          E       E7               A   
Wanderin' thru my memories with my darlin' 
       E             B7         E 
Now, I fall thru the door on my own 
 

      A 
On my own, again 
     E 
All alone again 
      B7                           E 
Now I see what it's like when your away 
      A 
On my own, again 
     E  
All alone again 
      B7                    E 
Now I see what its like I'm away 
 
 
Spoken: 
He was a man, walkin' big and proud 
And he was walkin' thru a mighty thick crowd 
Although we never could understand where this man had been 
For as time grew on, he grew weak and thin 
As the days rolled on, thru the nights 
Well, he started drinkin' so much 
He was loosin' his mind 
And as he sits back, he knows that 
He'll die alone 
 
Chorus
