[Verse]
G Bm
The days are high, the nights are low
Em Am
I listen to the radio
C D
And I might hear someone I know
G Bm
Your hair is blond, your eyes are blue
Em Am
This much I know, these things are true
C D
You've been gone so long I don't know what to do
G Bm
With myself, when you call
Em Am
Staring at a crumbling wall
C D
Feeling like a wrecking ball
[Chorus]
C C
Where you been? Don't make me guess
Em D
You know my dear, I must confess
Am C
You can't compete with loneliness

G Bm
The weeks are months, the months are years
Em Am
The days are rolling down like tears
C D
Is loneliness your only fear?
G Bm
Did you lose your way? Did you lose your mind?
Em Am
Did you lose the nerve to press rewind?
C D
Spinning forward all the time
G Bm
Is that you down the hall?
Em Am
Staring through the bedroom wall
C D
Swinging like a wrecking ball
[Chorus]

Where you been? Don't make me guess

You know my dear, I must confess

You can't compete with loneliness
