Intro: Fig 1. 2x
Verse 1 (Am Dm F 2x):
You had the best, but you gave her up
'Cause dependency might interrupt
Idealistic will be so hard to please,
Put your indecisive mind at ease
Am
You broke the set, now there's only singles
There's no lookin back this time I meant it
Chorus (C B G# F 2x):
Are you happy now? How is it now?
Are you happy now? How is it now?
Fig 1. 1x
Verse 2 (Am Dm F 2x + Am Dm):
The uncertainty you had of me, brought clouded shady company
The tenderness habitual, a seldom-fading ritual
You killed the pair, now oly one is breathing
There's no looking back, this time I meant it
Chorus (C B G# F 2x):
Are you happy now? How is it now?
Are you happy now? How is it now?
Fig. 2 (2x)
Are you happy now? How is it now?
Are you happy now?
Interlude (Dm B 2x; Em C 2x):
No more leaning on your shoulder
I won't be there no more bother
If you feel you might just want me
That's too bad, I'm not that easy
Solo: Fig 3. + Fig 4.

Verse 3 (Am Dm F x):
The contemplator all those years
Now you must adhere to your new career of liberation
You've been cast all by yourself
You're free at last
You broke the set Now there's only singles
There's no looking back, this time I mean it
Chorus (C B G# F x + Fig. 2 2x)
Outro (Fig. 3 + Fig. 5):
You're by yourself, all by yourself
You have no one else, you're by yourself
All by yourself (4x)
No one else, no one else
By yourself, by yourself......
