Capo 3 
 
   G                 C                      G    C   G   C  
If I must live alone, I'd rather do it by myself 
         G             G/F#      Em                           A          D 
For I've never known a mirror to shake it's head and turn and walk away 
    G                C                            G 
And lookin' at myself and all the things that I believe in 
     G                   D                        G  
Left dying in the silence of the things you never say 
 
I'm sleeping by myself, somehow I've never had you 

Oh, I wish I knew the reason, I'm sure there's an answer to it all 

Talking to myself is something else that I've grown used to 

One-sided conversations with a narrow-minded wall 
 
Bridge: 
G               C 
Talk to me, oh, can't you see  
             G               G/F#         Em 
That I can't bear to give my dream to someone  
          C                D  
Who would stand and let it fall. 
 
 
  G                  C                      G   C   G   C 
A prisoner to myself, I'm the only one that holds me 
       G                   D                    G  
In one-sided conversations with a narrow-minded wall 
       G                   D                    C    G  
In one-sided conversations with a narrow-minded wall
