Verse 1:
G Em
She looks at the clock, says, "I can't stay
C D
"I've got to get home, be on my way"
G Em
He says, "I wish, you wouldn't go
C D
It's cold outside, starting to snow."
G Em
Out the window, it's coming down
C D
She sighs, reaches for the door
G Em
He sighs, alone again
C D
Kills the lights, the snow descends

Aw-A-y

(Where'd you go?)

Living

In yesterdays

Verse 2:
G Em
The engine hums in the muted night
C D
Stares at the dark, makes up her mind
G EM
Picks up the phone, tears in her eyes
C D
As it rings, she forces a smile
G Em
".Hey how are you? Sorry so late.
C D
Is your wife at home, cause I can't wait."
G Em
From the darkened room, he watches her dial
C D
And wonders why he can't make her smile.
Chorus:
G
Drifting
Gm Em
Aw-A-y
C
(Where'd you go?)
G
Living
Gm Em
In yesterdays
C
(Where'd she go)
Bridge:
G
In the night snow falls like stars
Em
Hiding lies and hiding scars
G
The subtle things that we don't say
Em
Built into walls day after day
G
In the heart of winter, comes a thaw
