Chord/Tab song: The Day You Went Away

By Roger Creager

[G]A crowded restaurant and [D]here you [C]are
[G]I'm doing fine but [D]you have [C]come so far
I [G]ask how long its [D]been like I dont [C]know
Ive been [G]counting the days since [D]youve been gone
Youd [C]think my love would show

Chorus:
But I [G]hear youre doing [D]great out on your [C]own
Youre [G]having a ball, have [D]friends that call you on the [C]telephone
[G]Youve got hopes[B7], Youve got dreams ,[Em] youve really got it m[C]ade
I [C]used to feel the same until the day you went [G]away

[G]I dont know why I [D]thought youd be a[C]round
[G]Looking back I [D]see I really [C]held you down
[G]Thinking that Id [D]always have it [C]all,
I [G]hate the way youre [D]riding high then all at [C]once you take the fall

Chorus

[Em]Everyone is [D]looking right at [C]you
[G]When you walk in y[D]ou really steal the s[C]how
[Em]Youre the one thing[D] I shouldve held on [C]to
But [Am]standing to[G]day I'm trying like [C]hell to let you [D]go
