Lyrics
There was
a man,
a lone
ly man,
who lost his love
through his in (Dsus)dif
fer (D)ence.
A heart
that cared,
that went
un shared
un til
it died
in his (G)si
lence.
And (D)sol i taire’s the on ly game in town.
And (Bm7)ev ’ry road that takes him, takes him down.
And (Em)by him self it’s eas y to pre (A)tend
he’ll nev er (G)love
a (D)gain.
And, (D)keep ing to him self he plays the game.
With (Bm7)out her love it al ways ends
the same.
While (G)life goes on a round him ev ’ry where
he’s play ing (G)sol
i (D)taire.
An oth
er day,
a lone
ly day.
So much to say
that goes (Dsus)un spok
(D)en.
And through the night,
his sleep
less nights,
his eyes
are closed.
His heart is (Dsus)brok
en.
And
A lit
tle home
goes up in smoke.
Just how
it goes,
goes with out (Dsus)say
ing.
(CN.C.)Sol i taire.
And (F#m)by him self it’s eas y to pre (B)tend
he’ll nev er (Esus)love
a (E)gain.
Oh,

he plays the game.
With (C#m7)out a love it al ways ends the same.
While (F#m)life goes on a round him ev ’ry (B)where
he’s play ing (Esus)sol
i (E)taire.
Sol
i taire,
sol
i taire.
Sol
i taire,
