A                D                   A
It was over the moment I first saw  you
                       D                A
That neon light seemed to shine on you alone
                          D             A
You smiled at me and you faded into darkness
         E                   A
Like a shadow looking for a home

[Chorus]
D                                  A
Where were you when I was sad and lonely?
D                                   E
Where were you when I was feeling blue?
A                  D                 A
Searching for the arms that hold me only
E                                      A
That's where I was, tell me where were you

[Verse 2]
A               D             A
In the corner singing on a barstool
                      D            A
Are you the light or devil on the glow?
                      D                  A
Across the room you shine just like a diamond
E                                A
Could I be the setting for the stone?

[Chorus]
D                                  A
Where were you when I was sad and lonely?
D                                   E
Where were you when I was feeling blue?
A                  D                 A
Searching for the arms that hold me only
E                                      A
That's where I was, tell me where were you
