  			Intro 
 
G  Em7  C        G 
 
Verse One: 
D                  Am    D/F#     C/G     G     D/F#    Em7 
Claire had all but given up, when she and Edwin fell in love 
D                        Am        D/F#     C/G  G        D/F#       B 
She touched his face and shook her head, in disbelief she sighed and said, 
Am                   Bm             C          G/B         Am7    C/D 
"In many dreams I've held you near, but now at last you're really here" 
 
G        Em7  C                                      G 
Where've you been?  I've looked for you forever and a day 
              C     Em                       D/F#    G 
Where've you been?  I'm just not myself when you're away 
 
Verse Two: 
D                    Am       D/F#      C/G   G      D/F#       Em7 
He asked her for her hand for life, and she became a salesman's wife 
D                Am       D/F#           C/G    G       D/F#   B 
He was home each night by eight, but one stormy evening he was late 
Am                        Bm            C         G/B        Am7    C/D 
Her frightened tears fell to the floor, until his key turned in the door 

G        Em7  C                                      G 
Where've you been?  I've looked for you forever and a day 
              C     Em                       D/F#    G 
Where've you been?  I'm just not myself when you're away 
 
Bridge: 
C                                   Em 
They never spent a night apart, for sixty years she heard him snore 
C                             Am                          D7      C/D  D7 
Now they're in a hospital, in seperate beds on different floors 
 
Verse Three: 
D                    Am  D/F#   C/G     G        D/F#  Em7 
Claire soon lost her memory, forgot the names of fam--ily 
D                 Am    D/F#  C/G      G        D/F#        B 
She never spoke a word again; then one day they wheeled him in 
Am                   Bm                C    G/B      Am7      C/D 
He held her hand and stroked her head, in a fragile voice she said 

G        Em7  C                                      G 
Where've you been?  I've looked for you forever and a day 
         Em7  C                                      Em 
Where've you been?  I'm just not myself when you're away 
    D                                C9 
No, I'm just not myself when you're away
