A Lonely September

Chords

Standard

Am	           F
I'm sittin' here all by myself
       C		            G
Just tryin' to think of something to do
Am		              F
Tryin' to think of something, anything
	C		          G
Just to keep me from thinking of you
Am		       F
But you know it's not working out
              C		          G
'cause you're all that's on my mind
Am		       F
One thought of you is all it takes
           C		           G
To leave the rest of the world behind


CHORUS

F		G	       C
Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
F		G	     C
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
F		G	      Am
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
F		               G	            C
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did

I'm sittin' here tryin' to convince myself

That you're not the one for me

But the more I think, the less I believe it
C			      	G
And the more I want you here with me

You know the holidays are coming up

I don't want to spend them alone

Memories of Christmas time with you
C				G
Will just kill me if I'm on my own

Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
F		G	     C
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
F		G	      Am

And you didn't mean to love me back
