Verse 1

there was a time i sat by myself

alone like a tree thinking of the day

and who it might be and where i might find you

alone just like me

Chorus

when i'm alone i think of you

and where you might be alone just like me

Verse 2

one day i smile the next day i'm sad

thoughts come and go like a grain of sand

i look to the sky and sometimes it rains

thinking of you well it's not the same

Chorus

when i'm alone i think of you

and where you might be alone just like me

Verse 3

now that you're here you're right by my side

me and my tree we still find the time

to walk through the clouds and look for the rain

but in know i can't find them cause i'm not the same

Chorus

when i'm alone i think of you

and where you might be alone by a tree

Notes:

listen to the song for the struming pattern, or play it however you want.

on the chorus, they let that G ring out, then pick back up with the C (again, listen if you want)

on the third verse, they don't really play the chords, they either hit the guitar or use a drum.

that being said, if you do play the chords, where i've got the F* you could play an F or a G there

- F follows the pattern of the earlier verses, but i use the G because the melody steps down and

i think it sounds better. if you don't play the chords, make sure you come back in on the Am.

on the last C, they don't play this chord, but if they did it would be a C.

tried to find this for a while, finally found the song on itunes and typed it

out. email me with any questions.
