Am    G    Am    G


[Verse]

        C                    F
Need a life with a set of directions
C
Get it right with a few small corrections
F
Find a groove, you just got to stay with it

Got to move, it's your life got to live it
Am
Spirit down, look around there's a cold wind a-blowin'
G
Being strong's what you long for but you've got to show it
Am
You're too vain to complain and ashamed
                     G 
No one knows you at all


[Chorus]

                         Am 
And you're alone at the ball
G             D          Am     G
You're all alone at the ball


[Verse]

       C
Got a car,    Cadillac,   El Dorado
C                         
Take it far, up to high Colorado
F
  Got to move, it's your life got to live it

Find a groove then you got to stay with it
Am
Hey this life's all about striking out taking chances
G
What's the point of it all if you call no one answers
Am
Spend your time make rhyme
                                G  
Just to find no one dancing at all


[Chorus]

                          Am  
Then you're alone at the ball
G                         Am     G   D  
  You're all alone at the ball


[Instrumental]   

C  G  F  Am


[Verse]

Am
Sing your song move along, 'cause the future awaits you
G
Free your brain from the chains that remain to enslave you
Am
Took your hits kept your wits,
                                           G 
Never flinched stayed yourself through it all


[Chorus]

                        Am
Now you're alone at the ball
    G                    Am       G
You're all alone at the ball


[Outro]

      Am      G
All alone,
        Am     G
At the ball
            Am     G
You're all alone
             Am      G
Alone at the ball
            Am       G
You're all alone
