Have all gone astray.

The man that won you

That great begin-ning

Don't know what happened.

And never a new love

Will be the same.

But fools will be fools

And where's he gone to?

The road gets rougher

It's lonelier and tougher.

     Fmaj7    G7
With hope you burn up

Ever since this world began

A one-man woman looking for the man that got away

The man that got away.
