Verse
A# F C Dm
My light has gone, the world spun on
A# F C
I threw myself away
A# F C Dm
Into a bag the army had
A# C Dm
And died in its green shape
A# F C Dm
The drunks, your dog, a whirling log
A# F C
These things that I won't say
A# F C Dm
They all provide a darker side
A# C Dm
These things, they keep me gray
[Chorus]
C Dm
Oh don't you cry
A# F C
We're only alone for one life
C Dm
Oh don't you cry
A# F C
We're only alone for one life
[Verse]
A# F C Dm
I lost my love, my wooden dove
A# F C
She broke then went away
A# F C Dm
She flew outside in white moonlight
A# C Dm
That dove, she made me great
A# F C Dm
We have a child, she got my smile
A# F C
She got most everything
A# F C Dm
I'd apologize for a missed life
A# C Dm
If I just knew her name
[Chorus]
C Dm
Oh don't you cry
A# F C
We're only alone for one life
C Dm
Oh don't you cry
A# F C
We're only alone for one life
C Dm
Oh don't you cry
A# F C
We're only alone for one life
C Dm
Oh don't you cry
A# F C
We're only alone for one life
A# F C
We're only alone for one life
A# F C
We're only alone
