BB
Late afternoon, dreaming hotel
E MajorE               BB
We just had the quarrel that sent you away
F#F#         E MajorE      BB
I was looking for you, are you gone gone?
BB
Called you on the phone, another dimension
E MajorE                 BB
Well, you never returned, oh you know what I mean
F#F#          E MajorE      BB
I went looking for you, are you gone gone?

E MajorE          F#F#
Down by the ocean it was so dismal,
E MajorE             F#F#
Women all standing with a shock on their faces
E MajorE        F#F#          BB
Sad description, oh I was looking for you.

BB
Everyone was singing, girl is washed up
E MajorE          BB
On Redondo Beach and everyone is so sad
F#F#         E MajorE      BB
I was looking for you, are you gone gone?
BB
Pretty little girl, everyone cried
E MajorE            BB
She was the victim of sweet suicide
F#F#          E MajorE      BB
I went looking for you, are you gone gone?

E MajorE          F#F#
Down by the ocean it was so dismal,
E MajorE             F#F#
Women all standing with a shock on their faces
E MajorE        F#F#          BB
Sad description, oh I was looking for you.

BB
Desk clerk told me girl was washed up,
E MajorE            BB
Was small, an angel with apple blonde hair, now
F#F#          E MajorE      BB
I went looking for you, are you gone gone?
BB
Picked up my key, didn't reply
E MajorE         BB
Went to my room, started to cry
F#F#          E MajorE      BB
You were small, an angel, are you gone gone?

E MajorE          F#F#
Down by the ocean it was so dismal
E MajorE             F#F#
I was just standing with shock on my face
E MajorE                F#F#             BB
The hearse pulled away, and the girl that had died, it was you.

E MajorE          F#F#              BB
You'll never return into my arms 'cause you were gone gone
E MajorE      F#F#              BB
Never return into my arms 'cause you were gone gone
BB
Gone gone, gone gone, goodbye.
