I could stop right here
G
Turn this car around
CEm
Walk back through the door
FG
Put my suitcase down
F
Tell you I'm sorry
CG
And things would be alright, I know
CG
But it all comes down to the lesser of two
AmEm
Alone by myself or alone with you
F
And if I have to be lonely
GC
I'd rather be lonely alone
CHORUS:
FG
I'd rather miss someone out on this highway
CDm7F
Than someone who's sitting just three feet away
G
And I'd rather be fighting some old memories
Dm7FG
Than to wonder if you ever really loved me
CG
I could keep going on like I have all along
AmEm
Telling myself that there's nothing wrong
F
But if I have to be lonely
GEb
I'd rather be lonely alone
INSTRUMENTAL: Gm Cm Gm Eb F C
