Social Distortion - Alone and Forsaken
Ok, so this is my first tab, but this is a pretty easy song, and I�m pretty confident
that it�s correct. It�s basically the same as the Hank Williams tab but with a capo on 3.
Capo on 3rd Fret; all chords relative to the capo.
Intro (Palm Mute)
Am
Verse 1
Am
We met in the springtime
when the blossoms unfold,
the pastures were green
Em Am
and the meadows were gold.
Am
Our love was in flower
as summer grew on.
Her love like the leaves
Em Am
now have withered and gone.
Verse 2
Am
The roses have faded
there's frost at my door.
The birds in the morning
Em Am
don't sing anymore.
Am
The grass in the valley
is starting to die,
and out in the darkness
Em Am
the whippoorwills cry.
Chorus
F
Alone and forsaken
C
by fate and by man.
Em
Oh Lord if you hear me
Am
please hold to my hand,
Em Am
oh please understand.
Verse 3
Am
Oh where has she gone to,
oh where can she be.
She may have forsaken
Em Am
some other like me.
Am
She promised to honor,
to love and obey.
Each vow was a plaything
Em Am
that she threw away.
Chorus
F
Alone and forsaken
C
by fate and by man.
Em
Oh Lord if you hear me
Am
please hold to my hand,
Em Am
oh please understand.

Verse 4
Am
The darkness has fallen,
the sky has turned gray,
the hound in the distance
Em Am
is starting to bay.
Am
I wonder, I wonder
what she's thinking of.
Forsaken, forgotten,
Em Am
without any love.
Chorus
F
Alone and forsaken
C
by fate and by man.

Oh Lord if you hear me
Am
please hold to my hand,
Em Am
oh please understand.
Chorus

Oh Lord if you hear me

oh please understand.

oh please understand.
