SOLITARY MAN    (Neil Diamond)

Em          Am            G           Em
Melinda was mine 'til the time that I found her
G       Am   G      Am
Holding Jim, loving him
Em             Am             G                   Em
Then Sue came along, loved me strong, that's what I thought
G      Am   G             Am
Me and Sue, but that died too.


CHORUS:
G                 C          G         D
Don't know that I will but until I can find me
                C              G            D
The girl who'll stay and won't play games behind me
               Em  D          Em   D        Em
I'll be what I am, a solitary man. Solitary man.


Em             Am         G              Em
I've had it to here bein' where love's a small word
G           Am       G     Am
A part-time thing, a paper ring
Em               Am           G               Em
I know it's been done, havin' one girl who'll love me
G        Am     G       Am
Right or wrong, weak or strong
