Intro: D  G   


verse 1: 
D 
Where were you that night 
it rained like hell? 
            G 
It started slow 
              D 
And continued on 
It washed our cars 
into the sea You were 
    G 
the only one missing 
               Bm 
If you weren’t there 
                  A 
when I needed you most 
               Bm 
I won’t shed a tear when 
           G      Gm 
I see your ghost. Whoa 


Interlude: D   


verse 2: 
D 
Can you face your friends 
when they have laid it 
       G 
on the line for you? 
                  D 
And you’ve done nothing 
but disgrace the gang 
and let them hang 
                G 
That’s what our heart 
is for, to use 
               Bm 
If you weren’t there 
                  A 
when I needed you most 
               Bm 
I won’t shed a tear when 
           G      Gm 
I see your ghost. Whoa 
Ask the question! 


 
D          A 
Where were you when 
    Bm          G 
the lights went out? 
Bm 
  Do you live like 
    A       D 
you should? Where 
     A 
were you when the 
Bm          G 
lights went out? 
Bm 
  Just cause you 
can doesn’t mean 
         A 
that you should 
Do you live 
     G          Gm 
like you should? 


verse 3: 
D 
Where were you that night 
it rained like hell? 
            G 
It started slow 
              D 
And continued on 
It washed our cars 
into the sea You were 
    G 
the only one missing 
               Bm 
If you weren’t there 
                  A 
when I needed you most 
               Bm 
I won’t shed a tear when 
           G      Gm 
I see your ghost. Whoa 
Ask the question!

up your lie?

Do you live

like you should?
