about

I am sure that we all can identify with the longing to have someone that understands us and knows us intimately. Someone that we can share our whole selves with. I bet we all know someone who could never be that person, even if they were the last person on earth. That is what this song is all about.

lyrics

I Think I’d Rather Be Alone
By Wes Furgason
Intro e,f#/G/D/Em/F x2

Verse 1
f#/G /D /Em /F
Every now and then I could use a helping hand
f#/G /D /Em /F
Every now and then a pair of kind eyes would be nice
/Bm /C /G /D
Some eye that inspire me, some eyes with some fire for me
/C /D(break) /G/D/Em/F x2
But if you’re my only choice, I think I rather be alone.

Verse 2
f#/G /D /Em /F
Once in a while I’d like someone to talk to
f#/G /D /Em /F
Every once in awhile, someone to share my thoughts who
/Bm /C /G /D
Will listen and understands, Someone who will back my plans
/C /D(break) /G/D/Em/F x2
But if you’re the best there is, I think I rather be alone.

Guitar (Solo over verse chords)

Bridge
/Bm /C
And when the world comes crashing down
/G /D
And there’s not another soul around
/C /D(break)
Don’t offer me your hand
/G/D/Em/F
I’d rather be alone














I’d Rather Be Alone pg-2

Verse 3
f#/G /D /Em /F
From time to time, when I start to get board
f#/G /D /Em /F
I think it would be nice, to play a game or cards
/Bm /C /G /D
But I’m always playing solitaire, It’s a lonely kind of love affair
/C /D(break) /G/D/Em/F x2
But if there’s no one else, I think I rather be alone

Verse 4
f#/G /D /Em /F
Now and again I find it hard to be on my own
f#/G /D /Em /F
And every now and again, I need to be knocked off my throne
/Bm /C /G /D
Someone who will share a bad day, Someone who won’t just walk away
/C /D(break) /G/D/Em/F
But if you’re the only one left, I think I rather be alone

When I was a kid in the 70's and 80's I can remember listening to the music that my parents loved. Elvis, the Beach Boys, and Roy Orbison. I learned to love that music also. Over the years I began playing covers of these great artists and today I strive to emulate the innocence, purity, and youth that these songs embodied. ... more
