  that's what I thought,
G            Am    F#m

  that died, too.

Chorus:
G                   C
  Don't know that I will
        G         D
  but until I can find me,
                C
  a girl who'll stay and
        G           D
  won't play games behind me.
                 (do main riff ‘til verse 2 starts)
  I'll be what I am,
  a solitary man,
  a solitary man,
  a solitary man.

Verse 2:
Em               Am         G              Em          F#m
  I've had it to here being where love's a small world,
G             Am     F#m
  a part time thing,
G         Am
  a paper ring.
Em                 Am
  I know it's been done
         G            Em         F#m
  havin' one girl who loves you,
G          Am    F#m
  right or wrong,
G         Am
  weak or strong.
