The Fear Of Being Alone(Chords)

	        Intro:  (D)  (G)  (A)  (D)  play twice 
 
We (D) ordered up (G) one more (A) bottle of (D) wine 
You told me your (G) story and I (A) thought about (D) mine 
You said when you (G) lost her you (A) lost every(D)thing 
It all started (G) having a fam(A)iliar (D) ring 
 
Repeat Intro 
 
So I (D) asked you to (G) take me (A) some place (D) quiet 
We wound up at the (G) river for the (A) rest of the (D) night 
Somewhere a(G)round the (A) break of (D) day 
I could hear it (G) coming from a (A) mile aw(D)ay 
 
So (G) don't say that (D) word 
Not the (G) one we both (D) heard (A) too much 
You (G) may think you (D) do but you (Em) don't 
It's just the (A) fear of being al(D)one 
 
Repeat Intro 
 
(D) Reckless (G) hearts can (A) clear a (D) path 
Wider than a (G) hurricane's (A) after(D)math 
We've both (G) traveled (A) down that (D) road 
Where in the name of (G) love (A) anything goes 
 
So (G) don't say that (D) word 
Not the (G) one we both (D) heard (A) too much 
You (G) may think you (D) do but you (Em) don't 
It's just the (A) fear of being al(D)one 
 
(Bm) Like a (A) child in the (G) night 
With (Bm) no one to (A) hold you 
And tell you (Em) everthing's gonna (A) be all right 
 
I (D) must ad(G)mit (A) it's been (D) fun  
But that's no (G) reason to (A) jump the (D) gun 
If this is (G) real (A) time will (D) tell 
So let me (No Chord) bite my tongue and remind myself 
 
(G) Don't say that (D) word 
Not the (G) one we both (D) heard (A) too much 
You (G) may think you (D) do but you (Em) don't 
It's just the (A) fear of being al(D)one 
 
Repeat Intro Twice
