[intro: ]E E4
E E4
Well I just can't seem to beat it
E E4
'Cause my heart's too numb to feel
E E4
And your smile does all the talking
E E4
And the pain is all that's real
E E4
The way that you keep screaming
E E4
I can hardly hear to think
E E4 E E4
And I feel the bridges are burning underneath my feet
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
A9 E E4
Oh how the road feels so long
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
E E4
Well I just want to stay dreaming
E E4
And I just don't want to wake
E E4 E E4
Why can't we keep on sailing across the same old lake
E E4 E E4
My forehead is still bleeding from the thorns I used to wear
E E4
And I'm left alone and I'm beaten
E E4
But this cross I choose to bear
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
A9 E E4
Oh how the road feels so long
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
A9
Well I finally found what I'm looking for
E E4
Though the road's still long and the night's still full
A9 B A
But I finally found what I'm looking for
A9
Well I finally found what I'm looking for
E E4
Though the road's still long and the night's still full
A9 B A | B A
I finally found what I'm looking for
E E4 E E4
The voices fall like timber and the fear it pulls like rain
E E4 E E4
And my heart is crushed to cinders underneath this kind of pain
E E4 E E4
But there is no resolution when the revolution's dead
E E4 E E4
So I'm left with no solution, but the voices in my head
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
A9 E E4
Oh how the road feels so long
A9 E E4
Where do you go when you're gone
