Whatever happened to our love?..I wish I understood.
Am G#0 Am (Fill3)
it used to be so nice, it used to be so good.

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me, S.O.S?
C G Dm F C Csus4 C
The love you gave me, nothing less can save me, S.O.S.
F G# Bb C
When you're gone, how can I even try to go on?
F G# Bb C C/B
When you're gone, though I try how can I carry on?
Am G#0 Am (Fill 1)
You seem so far away though you are standing near.

You made me feel alive but something died, I fear.
C G Dm Am
