All By Myself Tab

by Eric Carmen


Eric Carmen - All By Myself
Standard tuning for guitar. As this song is all piano, the chords may not sound correct
the guitar, but competent pianists should be able to work it out. The structure here may
be the same as some versions, as two were released. One is a shorter one, and the other 
one has a piano solo in, and is about seven minutes long.

Intro:  x8


When I was young
        /               -5/
I never needed anyone
                           
And makin' love was just for fun

Those days are gone

Bridge: , , -5, 



Livin' alone
           /                            -5/
I think of all the friends I've known
                       
But when I dial the telephone

Nobody's home

Bridge: , , , , ,

All by myself
             -5/
Dont wanna be
                -5/  
All by myself anymore
         
All by myself
               -5/
Dont wanna live
                -5/  
All by myself anymore



Hard to be sure
             /              -5/
Some times I feel so insecure
                         
And love so distant and obscure

Remains the cure

Bridge: , , -5, 



When I was young
        /               -5/

And makin' love was just for fun

                -5/  
All by myself anymore
         
All by myself
               -5/
Dont wanna live
                -5/  
All by myself anymore
