            C
Where's the word for the sadness?

           F
Where's the poetry in the pain?

           Fm
Where's the colour in the stain?

          C     Dm   Em  E7
Where the tears have fal-len?

     F     G          C
It's gone,  it's just gone
[Verse 2]
C
Where's the method to this madness?

  F
As we create this suffering

   Fm
And we do each other in

       C     Dm   Em  E7
And we still hold on

         F     G          C
But it's gone,  it's just gone
[Chorus]
C              Cmaj7
He says it's gone

       Gm7      C7          F
And he can't go on living a memory

Fm         A#7  Am7       D
Mulling it over endlessly

                              Gsus  G
Why is that so hard for me to see?
[Post Chorus]
             C  Cmaj7
He says it's gone

       Gm7      C7           Fmaj7
And he can't go on trying to live a lie

Fm          A#7
And when he cries

Am               Dsus      D          Gsus  G
I know it's over but I may never know why
[Verse 3]
        C
There's no face in the locket

        F
There's no place for the past

        Fm
I'll put it back in my pocket

       C  Dm  Em  E     F
It was ne-ver mea-nt to last

Gsus G          C
      It's just gone
[Chorus]
C              Cmaj7
He says it's gone

       Gm7      C7          F
And he can't go on living a memory

Fm         A#7  Am7       D
Mulling it over endlessly

                              G7
Why is that so hard for me to see?
[Post Chorus]
             C  Cmaj7
He says it's gone

       Gm7      C7           Fmaj7
And he can't go on trying to live a lie

Fm          A#7
And when he cries

Am               Dsus      D          Gsus  G
I know it's over but I may never know why
[Outro and Fade]
        C
There's no word for the sadness

There's no poetry in the pain

        Fm
There's no colour in the stain

          C     Dm   E   E7
Where the tears have fallen

     F    G           C
It's gone,  it's just gone

     Fm
It's gone,

     C
It's just gone

Well, it's gone......
