[Intro]
C D Em C D
[Verse]
G
it was 1964
C
in a raging winter storm
D
when 2 strangers met by chance
C D G
to share a little warmth
G
in that crowded corner restaurant
C
beneath the blinking traffic light
Am D
it didnt take them long to see
C D
that love was a first sight
C
and from that moment on
G
they were together night and day
Am
he finally got the nerve one night
D
to take her hand and say
[Chorus]
C D Em C
where have you been all my life
D
when you coulda been here by my side
C D Em C
i've had this love deep inside
Am D
just waiting for someone to give it to
C D
hopin that someone feels just like i do
C D G
so where have you been all my life
G
so many years have passed
C
looking back they knew
D
that they made the right decision
C D G
what else could they do
G
how could they have raised a child
C
when they were kids themselves
Am D
a secret for so many years
C D
stayed locked upon the shelf
C
the one cold rainy night
G
they had both just gone to bed
Am G
that secret knock upon there door
C
they opened it
D
and she said
[Chorus]
C D G
where have you been all my life
[Outro]
