Verse 1
All the [Bm7]rain came down
On a c[A]old new town
As he [G]carried you a[D]way
From your f[Bm7]ather's hand
That always s[A]eemed like a fist
Reaching [G]out to make you p[D]ay
Link Bm7, D, Bm7, A, Bm7, D, Bm7, D

He came like a hero from the factory floor
With the sun and moon as gifts
But the only son you ever saw
Where the two he left you with

Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head
That you never knew you where young
Because you played chance with a lifetime's romance
And the price was far too long
Chorus
Oh lord where did the feeling go?
Oh lord I never felt so low (repeat x2)
Oh lord where did the feeling go?
Oh lord I never felt so low
Oh lord where did the feeling go?
Oh lord I never felt so low (repeat x2)
