INTRO: D#



#1.

D#                        G#           D#

Down here on the farm the weather gets messy..

                              A#

laying around with nothin' to do.

     D#                 G#          D#

When you went away, you took my cow Bessie..

D#                            A#     D#

I miss her darling, more than I miss you.



#2.

D#                          G#           D#

You took off your leg, your wig and your glass eye..

D#                                    A#

and you should've seen the look on my face.

  D#                G#        D#

I wanted to kiss, I wanted to hug you..

D#                         A#       D#

but you were scattered all over the place.



CHORUS:

G#                          D#

Where, oh, where, are you tonight?

D#                             A#

Why did you leave me here all alone?

  D#                           G#

I searched the world over, and thought I found 

D#

true love.

D#                  A#             D#

You met another and Phht! you were gone.



#3.

D#                               G#        D#

I know that you loved me, here's my way of knowing.

D#                                         A#

The proof's hanging out right there on the line.

     D#                 G#            D#

When I see the snow and feel the wind blowing..

D#                          A#            D#

your nightie's hugging them long johns of mine.



#4.

D#                     G#         D#

The noises you made at our supper table..

D#                                 A#

your habits, my dear, were surely absurd.

    D#                G#        D#

But how many times do I have to tell you..

D#                   A#           D#

soup is a dish to be seen and not heard.



CHORUS:

G#                          D#

Where, oh, where, are you tonight?

D#                             A#

Why did you leave me here all alone?

  D#                           G#

I searched the world over, and thought I found 

D#

true love.

D#                  A#             D#

You met another and Phht! you were gone.



#5.

D#                        G#          D#

Remember you phoned me, a-sobbin' and cryin'..

D#                                 A#

the dog bit your ma, and drug her around.

    D#                       G#              D#

You said she looked pale and thought she was dying..

D#                          A#        D#

I said, 'Don't worry,' I'll buy a new hound.'



#6.

D#                 G#       D#

I had six kids and you had eleven..and we had 

                          A#

a boy, and they grew like flowers.

  D#                        G#            D#

I wish you'd come back, without you ain't Heaven..

D#                              A#         D#

cause your kids and my kids are beatin' up ours.



CHORUS:

G#                          D#

Where, oh, where, are you tonight?

D#                             A#

Why did you leave me here all alone?

  D#                           G#

I searched the world over, and thought I found 

D#

true love.

D#                  A#             D#

You met another and Phht! you were gone.



OUTRO:

  D#                           G#

I searched the world over, and thought I found 

D#

true love.

D#                  A#               D#

You met another and Phht! you..were..gone.
