Verse 
Em            G                  C 
   How will I know when this is over? 
Em                 G              D 
   If you're still living in my mind 
Em                 G             C 
   But try living alone in only silence 
        D              Em    D       C 
It goes on and on and on and on and on 

        Em                          G                     C 
We were drowining in the dark, your heart broken half in my hand 
     Em             G                 D 
When you went away, I had nothing to say 
          Em                   G               C 
I've been looking for the words, to break the silence 
            D              Em    D       C 
But it goes on and on and on and on and on 

 
Am    G            C 
Where have you gone? 
         G             D 
Heaven knows, Heaven knows 
                Am G     C 
Cause I'm still holding on 
         G             D 
Heaven knows, Heaven knows 

Verse 
Em              G                 C 
   I called you up and asked for answers 
Em                  G               D 
   You said you're living in the sky 
Em         G                  C 
   Heaven knows you don't belong there 
              D              Em    D       C 
But life goes on and on and on and on and on 

       Em                    G                C 
So I'm driving to a new place where I won't see you 
Em              G                   D 
Anywhere that doesn't rhyme with hope 
           Em                G                    C 
But you're sitting there, I feel your stare beside me 
          D              Em    D       C 
Life goes on and on and on and on and on 

 
Am    G            C 
Where have you gone? 
         G             D 
Heaven knows, Heaven knows 
                Am G     C 
Cause I'm still holding on 
         G             D 
Heaven knows, Heaven knows 

Bridge 
      Am                   G               C 
And I know that you'll be watching me get older 
         G             D 
Heaven knows, Heaven knows 
      Am              G                 C 
And I need for you to know, this ain't over 
         G             D 
Heaven knows, Heaven knows 


Am    G            C 
Where have you gone? 
         G             D 
Heaven knows, Heaven knows 
                Am G     C 
Cause I'm still holding on 
                D              Em    D       C 
Cause life goes on and on and on and on and on
