Solitaire

E
There was a man
F#7
A lonely man
B
Who lost his love
              A/E   E
Through his indifference

E
A heart that cared
F#7
That went unshared
B
Until it died
          A/E  E     B
Within his silence

    E
And solitare's the only game in town
    C#m
And every road that takes him

Takes him down
    F#m                        B
And by himself it's easy to pretend
            A/E   E       B
He'll never love again

    E
And keeping to himself he plays the game
    C#m
Without her love

It always ends the same
      F#m                          B
While life goes on around him everywhere
             A/E  E     B
He's playing solitaire

E
A little hope
F#7
Goes up in smoke
B
Just how it goes
            A/E  E    B
Goes without saying

E
There was a man
F#7
A lonely man
B
Who would command
              A/E   E    B
The hand he's playing

    E
And solitare's the only game in town
    C#m
And every road that takes him

Takes him down
    F#m                        B
And by himself it's easy to pretend
            A/E   E       B
He'll never love again

    E
And keeping to himself he plays the game
    C#m
Without her love

It always ends the same
      F#m                          B
