Intro:
E5  A5  E5  A5  E5  A5
Ooooooooh

E5
Once a girl
A5
In mommy?s world
G#5                        A5
Laughing, rhyming, singing songs
G#5                  F#5
In her newly learned tongue

E5  A5  E5  A5  E5  A5
Ooooooooh

E5
our girl
A5
In this world
G#5                        A5
Married to a stranger?s name
G#5                    F#5
Writing to him all the same

E5                    A5
Oh but where can she go
        E5      A5
If she?s going alone?
E5             A5
Where can she go
        E5       A5
If she?s going alone?

E5            A5      G#5
Where can she go to avoid
          F#5
The love goodbye?

E5  A5  E5  A5  E5  A5
Oooooooooh

All the same
F#5
Letters answer letters
           G#5
In a round about way
         A5
?Sweet darling? they commence,
           F#5           E5
But she no longer feels that way

           E5
Oh there?s not a soul
        A5
In the streets below
      G#5
She's sitting by the window,
     F#5
Clinging to the phone
   G#5
Dialing endless numbers
  F#5
No reply
      G#5    A5
Love goodbye.

E5  A5  E5  A5  E5  A5
Ooooooooh

E5                    A5
Oh but where can she go
        E5      A5
If she?s going alone?
E5             A5
Where can she go
        E5       A5
If she?s going?

E5                    A5
where can she go
        E5      A5
If she?s going alone?
E5    A5
She?s going alone
E5        A5
She?s going?
