Where Were You Chords

  			Intro: D 

Verse: 1 

D 
I was in my bedroom at midnight when I first heard Nirvana 
       Bm 
I was sixteen the first time I told a girl I loved her 
          G 
It was Matagorda Bay when I got my first taste of booze 
                D 
And where were you? Where were you? 
D 
When I was pourin' out my heart for a few dollars in a jar 
           Bm 
When I was sold a few dreams just buy a used car 
          G 
Back when I was still figurin' out what a man's supposed to do 
           D 
Where were you? Yeah, where were you? 


 
D 
I wanna know every second of your story 
        Bm 
All the highs and the lows, all the grit, all the glory 
         G 
Who'd you kiss? Who'd you hurt? 
     G 
What band was on your shirt? 
           D 
Where were you? Where were you? 


Verse: 2 
         D 
Was your heart gettin' broke 

When someone was bendin' mine? 
            Bm 
When I was lookin' for a reason 

Were you lookin' for a rhyme? 
            G 
When I was talkin' to the stars 

Were you confessin' to the moon? 
          D 
I wish I knew, where were you? 


 
D 
Yeah, I wanna know every second of your story 
        Bm 
All the highs and the lows, all the grit, all the glory 
         G 
Who'd you kiss? Who'd you hurt? 
     G 
What band was on your shirt? 
           D 
Where were you? Where were you? 


Post-Chorus 
D 
Yeah, I wanna hear about the bottom of your heartbreaks 
      Bm 
Your champagne year, was it New York? Was it L.A.? 
          G 
When you get up when you fell, when you finally found yourself 
           D 
Where were you? (Where were you?) 
            D 
Where were you? (Where were you?) 

Yeah 


Bridge 
     Bm 
Your last and your first 
     Bm 
Your best and your worst 
        D 
All the twists all the turns 
         D 
All the diamonds in the dirt 
      D                   Bm 
Yeah, I wanna know, yeah, I wanna know 
            G 
Who'd you kiss? Who'd you hurt? 
           D 
What band was on your shirt?
