D7 D7 G LA's fine but it ain't home and New York's home but it ain't mine no more. Chorus: G I am I said C To noone there D D7 D-C-G D And noone heard at all, not even the chair G I am I cried C I am said I D D7 D-C-G D And I am lost and I don't even know why (tacit) Leaving me lonely still Verse 2: Did-you-ever-hear-about-the-frog-who-dreamed-about-being-a-king And suddenly became one? Well, except for the names and a few other changes My story's the same one But I have an emptiness deep inside so strong it won't let me go And I'm not a man who likes to swear but I've never cared for the sound of being alone. Chorus Chorus. Tom Jones jonest@phantom.com
