Verse 1: 
  F#maj7                   F#6
 In a little while from now, 
         A#m7                 A#7sus4
 If I'm not feeling any less sour 
    C#m       
 I promised myself to treat myself 
      Am7-5         D#7
 And visit a nearby tower, 
        G#m7
 And climbing to the top, 
         Gm7-5         Bm6
 Will throw myself off 
        F#                 F#aug
 In an effort to make it clear to who 
       F#6                       F7
 Ever what it's like when your shattered 
       A#m                           C#m
 Left standing in the lurch, at a church 
                   D7-9  D#7
 Where people 're saying, 
      G#m
 "My God that's tough, she stood him up! 
      Gm7-5           Bm6 
 No point in us remaining. 
     F#maj7           F#6
 We may as well go home." 
      A#m  A#m7  D#7
 As I did on my own, 
    G#m        C#7     F#
 Alone again, naturally 

Verse 2: 
      F#maj7                  F#6
 To think that only yesterday, 
        A#m7                 A#7sus4
 I was cheerful, bright and gay, 
           C#m       
 Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do, 
       Am7-5               D#7
 The role I was about to play 
         G#m7
 But as if to knock me down, 
     Gm7-5  Bm6    Gm7-5
 Reality came around 
        F#                  F#aug
 And without so much as a mere touch, 
         F#6          F7
 Cut me into little pieces 
  A#m
 Leaving me to doubt, 
            C#m           D7-9  D#7
 Talk about God and His mercy 
       G#m
 Who if He really does exist 
  Gm7-5             Bm6
 Why did He desert me 
  F#maj7          F#6
 In my hour of need? 
      A#m  A#m7  D#7
 I truly am indeed, 
    G#m        C#7     F#
 Alone again, naturally 
 
Bridge:

 It seems to me that  
  
 There are more hearts 
  E7              E7/D
 broken in the world  
                 Em7-5
 that can't be mended 
 Dm 5      A
 Left unattended 
 Bm7-5        C#maj7     C#9/G# C#7
 What do we do? What do we do?

Verse 3: 
      F#maj7                  F#6
 Now looking back over the years, 
          A#m7              A#7sus4
 And whatever else that appears 
       C#m       
 I remember I cried when my father died 
        Am7-5               D#7
 Never wishing to hide the tears 
          G#m7
 And at sixty five years old, 
      Gm7-5                 
 My mother, God rest her soul, 
            F#                  F#aug
 Couldn't understand, why the only man 
          F#6                  F7
 She had ever loved had been taken  
  A#m                          C#m
 Leaving her to start with a heart  
           D7-9  D#7
 So badly broken 
      G#m
 Despite encouragement from me 
       Gm7-5         Bm6
 No words were ever spoken 
      F#maj7             F#6
 And when she passed away 
      A#m       A#m7    D#7
 I cried and cried all day  
    G#m       C7-9     F#/A# A#m7 D#7
 Alone again, naturally 
    G#m        C7-9  C#7 F#
 Alone again, naturally

Intro: F#m7 - Bm7 - E - C#m7  
   
  F#m        Bm7             E  
Clair, the moment I met you, I swear. 
    C#m7        F#m7         F#m  
I felt as if something, somewhere, 
       Bm7                G#m7-5      E               
Had happened to me, which I couldn't see. 
     F#m        Bm7             E                                
And then, the moment I met you, again. 
   C#m7                     F#m         
I knew in my heart that we were friends. 
   Bm7              G#m7-5       E    
It had to be so, it couldn't be no. 
 
     A      G                    Bm7  
But try as hard as I might do, I don't know why. 
 E                        A  
You get to me in a way I can't describe. 
  D7+                          D7+/Eb  
Words mean so little when you look up and smile. 
             D7+/E                         F#m  
I don't care what people say, to me you're more than a child.                                       
     Bm7    E                         
Oh Clair. Clair 
 
  F#m                                   
Clair 
    Bm7            E                                               
If ever a moment so rare 
     C#m7               F#m  
Was captured for all to compare. 
      Bm7              G#m7           E  
That moment is you in all      that you do. 
     A      G *                      Bm7  
But why in spite of our age difference do I cry. 
 E                          A  
Each time I leave you I feel I could die. 
 D7+                           D7+/E  
Nothing means more to me than hearing you say, 
              D7+/E               F#m  
"I'm going to marry  you. Will you marry me? Oh hurray!" 
    Bm7    E  
Oh Clair Clair 
 
Gm - Cm7 - F - Bb - Gm - D  
 
  F#m       Bm7                    E  
Clair, I've told you before "Don't you dare!" 
      A         F#m  
"Get back into bed." 
           Bm7            E  
"Can't you see that it's late." 
         A            F#m  
"No you can't have a drink." 
     Bm7              E          A  
"Oh aright then, but wait just a minute." 
 
  G                       Bm7     E  
While I, in an effort to babysit, capture my breath, 
            A  
What there is left of it. 
 D7+                      D7+/Eb  
You  can be murder at this hour   of the day. 
            D7+/E                      F#m  
But in the morning the sun will see my lifetime away. 
 
     Bm7       E Eb Dm  A/C#  E  
Oh Clair     Clair 
     A  
Oh Clair
