Flying Burrito Brothers All Alone written by Chris Hillman

D
All alone
ADA
She waits at the window
D
While the sun
ADA
Sets in the sea
BmA
Is that the sound of his footsteps
GA
That echoes in the hall
BmA
And then they fade away
GA
No it wasn't him after all
D
He was gone
ADA
In the early morning
D
And he said
ADA
He wouldn't be long
BmA
But that was spring
GA
And now that the leaves have all turned brown
BmA
She only shares her bed
GA
With the lonliness she has found
SOLO E Asus A E Asus A F G A A7
AD
Still she waits
ADA
Alone at the window
D
For the one
ADA
Who wandered away
BmA
Each day the room grows colder
GA
Her tears grow harder to hold
BmA
And still she saves her love
GA
For the day she knows he'll come home
SOLO D A D A D A D A
BmA
Is that the sound of his footsteps
GA
That echoes in the hall
BmA
And then they fade away
GA
No it wasn't him after all
