C
There is no good reason
         F             C
I should have to be so alone
    Am                G
I'm smothered by this emptiness
        F                  C
Lord, I wish I was made of stone
                      E
Like a fool I lent my soul to love
       F                C
And it paid me back in change
F   C           F     G
God help me, am I the only one
      F              C
Who's ever felt this way
C   
A heart that's worn and weathered
           F              C
Would know better than to fight
      Am               G
But I wore mine like a weapon
       F               C
Played out love like a crime
                        E
And it wrung me out and strung me out
       F                C
And it hung years on my face
F   C           F     G 
God help me, am I the only  one
      F              C
Who's ever felt this way

SOLO

G               E             F
Now my sense of humor needs a break
F                     C
I see a shadow in the mirror
           F                   C
And she's laughin' through her tears
         Am                  G
One more smile's all I can fake
C
There is a wound inside me
         F               C
And it's bleeding like a flood
          Am                 G
There are times when I see a light ahead
F           C 
Hope is not enough
C                 E
As another night surrounds me
       F               C
And it pounds me like a wave
F   C           F     G 
God help me, am I the only  one
      F              C
Who's ever felt this way
F   C           F     G
God help me, am I the only one
      F                     C   F   C   Am  G   F   C
Who's ever felt this way
