Where are those hap py days, they seem so hard to find?
I try to reach for you, but you have closed my mind.
What ev er hap pened to our love?
I wish I un der stood,
it used to be so nice, it used to be so good.
So when you’re (C)near me dar ling, can’t you (Bb)hear me, S.
O.

When you’re gone,
how can I e ven try to go on?
When you’re gone,
though I try how can I car ry on?
When you’re gone,
