[Opening]
[Am] [Dm] [G] [C] [F] [E] [Am]
If only you could [Am]see the [G]tears, in the [F]world you left [Am]behind
If only you could [F]heal my [G]heart, just one [Am]more time
Even when I [Am]close my [G]eyes, there’s an [F]image of your [Am]face
And once again I [F]come to [G]realize, you’re a [F]loss I can’t [E]replace
[chorus]
[Am]Soledad, It’s a [Dm]keeping for the [G]lonely, since the [C]day that you were [F]gone
Why did you [E]leave me [Am]Soledad, in my [Dm]heart you were the [G]only
And your [C]memory lives [F]on, why did you [E]leave me [Am]Soledad
[section 2]
Walking down the [Am]streets of [G]Nothing Ville, where our [Am]love was young and [C]free
Can’t believe just [F]what an empty [G]place, it has [Am]come to be
I would give my [F]life [G]away, if it could [Am]only be the [C]same
‘Cause I can’t still the [F]voice in-[G]side of me, that is [F]calling out your [E]name
[chorus]
[Am]Soledad, it’s a [Dm]keeping for the [G]lonely, since the [C]day that you were [F]gone
Why did you [E]leave me [Am]Soledad, in my [Dm]heart you were the [G]only
And your [C]memory lives [F]on, why did you [E]leave me [Am]Soledad
[Closing]
[Dm]Time will never [E]change the things you [Am]told me, [F]after all we’re [G]meant to be
[E]Love will bring us [Am]back to you and [F]me, if [E]only you could see
[chorus]
[Bbm]Soledad, It’s a [Ebm]keeping for the [Ab]lonely, since the [C#]day that you were [F#]gone
Why did you [F]leave me [Bbm]Soledad, in my [Ebm]heart you were the [Ab]only
And your [C#]memory lives [F#]on, why did you [F]leave me [Bbm]Soledad
