C                        E7
  What happened to that simple smile?

    Am7               D7
The laughing boy, the dancing child

F                              C
  He walked the world and felt every mile

F                           G   G7
  Now he aches when he wakes up

C               E7
  What became of happiness?

Am                       D7
  Locked away in some forgotten chest

F                           C
  Next to grandma's wedding dress

F                        G    G7
  Her pearls and her makeup
[Chorus]
Am           Em  Em7 Cmaj7/E
  And oh, my love

F               C  G/B
  Where did you go?

Am7                Em    Em7 Cmaj7/E
  Did you burn out quick?

F                  C    G/B
  Did you fade out slow?

Am7            Em
  And oh, my friend

F                Fm
  Do you still remain

C           C/B
  In a photograph

        Am7         G                Fmaj7sus2  Fsus2 G7
When we danced and laughed and played

              C
In the summer rain?
[Instrumental] E7 Am D7 F C Fmaj7sus2 Fsus2 Gsus4 G7 [Verse 2]
C                        E
  What happened to the spark in your eye

Am
  The fire in your belly

        D7
And the sun in your sky?

F                                C
  Burnt away and left you feeling dry

Fmaj7sus2                        G   G7
Now you're thirsty for something more
[Chorus 2]
Am            Em  Em7 Cmaj7/E
  And, oh, my love

F             C  G/B
Where did you go?

Am7                Em
  Did you burn out quick?

F                  C    C/B
  Did you fade out slow?  Oh

Am7        Em  Em7 Cmaj7/E
  Oh, my friend

F                Fm
  Do you still remain

C           C/B
  In a photograph

        Am7         G                Fmaj7sus2  Fsus2 G7
When we danced and laughed and played
