F A# F Times were tough love was not enough C F So you said sorry Johnny I'm gone gone gone You said my act was funny A# F But we both knew what was missing honey C A# So you let out on your own F Now that pretty form that you've got baby A# C F Will make sure you get along A# C F But you're gonna find our someday honey Chorus: A# C F When You're alone you're alone A# C F When You're alone you're alone A# C F When You're alone you're alone A# C F C When You're alone you ain't nothing but alone Now I was young and pretty on the mean streets of the city And I fought to make 'em my home With just the shirt on my back, I left and swore I'd never look back And, man, I was gone, gone, gone But there's things that'll knock you down you don't even see coming And send you crawling like a baby back home You're gonna find out that day, sugar Chorus I knew some day your runnin' would be through And you'd think back on me and you And your love would be strong You'd forget all about the bad And think only of all the laughs that we had And you'd want to come home Now it ain't hard feelings or nothing, sugar That ain't what's got me singing this song It's just nobody knows, honey, where love goes But when it goes, it's gone gone Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  C  F  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
