Where'd you go [B] last night?
[A]
I [B] never heard you [F#m] leaving [E] I woke up in [B] such a fright
[A] When I could [B] no longer feel you breathing
And [A] I could smell [E] the rain from [B] the storm blowing in
[A] And I looked out of sight [B] where your [E] car should have been
Just the streetlights glare [B] on an empty street
[F#m] When that [A] rain came down [B] in a twisted [A] sheet
[E] Drive [B] on slowly,
[A] [E] drive [B] on by
[A] [E] One [B] red rose in the [A] candlelight
[E] [B] Where'd
[E] you go last night?
[A] [F#m] When [E] the [A] show was [B] over, [E] when the [F#m] band quit playing
[E] When [A] the [D#] bar [B] was closing, [E] when the rain slacked off
And the wind died [A] down, and a siren wailed [E] somewhere [B]
[F#m] across town
[E] Nothing to be done, nothing to be [B] said
[A] Just had to lay back down on this broken [B] bed
[A] [C#m] Drive [B] on slowly, [G#m] [A] [E] drive [B] on by
[A] One [E] [B] red rose in the [A] candlelight
[E] [B]
You [A] could [E] call [B] me later, [E] [A] [E] walk me through this one more [A] time
I guess you [E] got [A] your [B] needs and I [A] got mine
