Verse 1
Bm7
All the rain came down
A
On a cold new town
G D
As he carried you away

From your father's hand

That always seemed like a fist
G D
Reaching out to make you pay
Link Bm7, D, Bm7, A, Bm7, D, Bm7, D
Verse 2
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

Verse 3
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)
