Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “Left Alone” dari Fiona Apple.
[Verse 1]
G
You made your major overtures
When you were a sure and orotund mutt
G
And I was still a dewey petal
Rather than a moribund slut
G
My love wrecked you
You packed to twirl your skirt at the palace
C
It hurt more than it ought to hurt
G
I went to work to cultivate a callus
[Pre-Chorus]
G
And now I'm hard, too hard to know
C G
I don't cry when I'm sad anymore, no no
G
Tears calcify in my tummy
G
Fears coincide with the tow
[Chorus]
Bb D Bb D
How can I ask anyone to love me
Bb D G
When all I do is beg to be left alone?
[Verse 2]
G
Oh, when I try to love
I can love the same man in the same bed in the same city
But not in the same room, it's a pity, but
C G
Oh, it never bothered me before
Not 'til this guy, what a guy, oh God what a good guy
And I can't even enjoy him
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Cause I'm hard, too hard to know
C G
I don't cry when I'm sad anymore, no no
G
Tears calcify in my tummy
G
Fears coincide with the tow
[Chorus]
Bb D Bb D
How can I ask anyone to love me
Bb D
When all I do is beg to be left
Bb D
When all I do is beg to be left
Bb D
When all I do is beg to be left
C G Bb D
Alone
C G Bb D
Alone
C G Bb D
Alone
[Verse 3]
G
My ills are reticulate
My woes are granular
C G
The ants weigh more than the elephants
Nothing, nothing is manageable
C
So couldn't we skip the valedictories?
I can see a the door there
Shut it and forget my number
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Cause I'm hard, too hard to know
C G
I don't cry when I'm sad anymore, no no
Tears calcify in my tummy
Fears coincide with the tow
[Chorus]
Bb D Bb D
How can I ask anyone to love me
Bb D
When all I do is beg to be left
Bb D
When all I do is beg to be left
Bb D G
When all I do is beg to be left alone?
