Intro - ------
--- 2x
[VERSE]
All above me the stars are bright
And a sweet suburban breeze is blowing
And down the block are the parking lights
Of a hundred friends who I barely know and
Dont know me
Dont know me
None of them know me
[CHORUS]
- - - - - - /F
And all through the party I want to leave
- - -
(all alone with one true love)
- - - - - - /F
I could be happy if I could be
- - -
(in the dark with one true love)
[VERSE]
And in the middle of everyone
I still find myself with my thoughts alone
And in the middle of all the noise
Look around myself at the shining toys that
I dont need
I dont need
I dont really need
[CHORUS]
- - - - - - /F
And all through the party I want to leave
- - -
(all alone with one true love)
- - - - - - /F
All of the lights are shining on me
- - -
(but all I want is one true love)
[BRIDGE]
In this world I can see
Many billions waiting in the sun
So Id love to believe
Thered be one of us for everyone
One of us for everyone
Enough to go around
But thats not what Ive found
[CHORUS]
- - - - - - /F
And all through the party I want to leave
- - -
(all alone with one true love)
- - - - - - /F
All of the lights are shining on me
- - -
(all I want is one true love)
- - - - - - /F
All of my life Ive just wanted to be
- - -
(all alone with one true love)
- - - - - - /F
Every day and night to be on my own with
- - -
One true love
- - -
With one true love
- - -
With one true love
- - -
With one true love
- -
With one true love

NOTES:
i am not a piano player, and this song was written by a very skilled (and crafty) one.
chord names might not be proper (a/f or F/a) but i use the key above to notate what goes where.
to get the sound of a piano, bass, and guitar out, i had to do some funky chords, as the
split the parts accordingly. please, if your hand begins to hurt(as mine did),
something else to alleviate your (and previously my)cramping hand. my hand eventually
used to these chords, and it didnt' hurt to play.
it might not exactly be correct to the album, but it's close enough for fun.
