AmGDFC Where do you go, where do you go, when hearts are closed? FAmGG7 When a friend be-comes a stranger, nobody wants to know. AmGDFC Where do you go, where do you go, when the world turns dark, FAmGFCF, C And the light of truth is blown out, and the roads are blocked?
Verse 2:
CFC He stopped by a stall, between the barrels and sacks, CGCGCF, C A child's face peeped out and gave a smile, and ran back. CFC Behind a misty glass, on a window-pane, CGCGCF, C A little finger drew a perfect heart, and a name.

AmGDFC Where do you go, where do you go, in a world filled with fright, FAmGG7 Only a song to warm you, through the night? AmGDFC Where do you go, where do you go, after lies are told, FAmGFCF, C And the light of truth is blown out, and the night is cold?
