The Lonely Life - Ver 2

Em7 What if I did not love you? C/E Where will that be to me Em7 But I wander through the avenues C/E Under a pall of misery (same as verse 1) Would I be face down in a gutter With cheap whiskey on my breath The lonely life of a writer Whose words could not pay his debts Em C/E G D/F# Saying please don't, please don't pass me by Em C/E I am alive, oh can't you see? G D/F# That I've been blinded completely Em C/E G D/F# Please don't, please don't pass me by Em C/E I am alive, oh can't you see? G D/F# That I am pleading for your mercy (same as verse 1) What if we became strangers? Would you notice my face in a crowd? And you could you hear the sorrow in my voice? Helplessly crying your name out loud (same as verse 1) Would I be searching for a savior? Burned and burning with regret The lonely life of a writer With one last desperate request (same chords progression) Saying please don't, please don't pass me by I am alive, oh can't you see? That I've been blinded completely Please don't, please don't pass me by I am alive, oh can't you see? That I am pleading for your mercy D/F# Am I've been on the lamb G Em Being hunted, something fierce Am D/F# They say time and tide don't wait for no man Am But I was just hoping C/E These storm filled skies will clear (same chords progression) Please don't, please don't pass me by Please don't, please don't pass me by Please don't, please don't pass me by I am alive, oh can't you see? That I am pleading for your mercy
