You Were Gone:Big John Khatt and The Highland Blues Band..Live in Germany, 1972. INTRO: D# #1.

^D#Down here on the farm the ^G#weather gets ^D#messy.. laying around with nothin' to ^A#do. When ^D#you went away, you ^G#took my cow ^D#Bessie.. ^D#I miss her darling, more than ^A#I miss ^D#you.

#2.

^D#You took off your leg, your ^G#wig and your ^D#glass eye.. ^D#and you should've seen the look on my ^A#face. I ^D#wanted to kiss, I ^G#wanted to ^D#hug you.. ^D#but you were scattered all ^A#over the ^D#place.

CHORUS:

^G#Where, oh, where, are you to^D#night? ^D#Why did you leave me here all a^A#lone? I ^D#searched the world over, and ^G#thought I found ^D#true love. ^D#You met another and ^A#Phht! you were ^D#gone.

#3.

^D#I know that you loved me, here's ^G#my way of ^D#knowing. ^D#The proof's hanging out right there on the ^A#line. When ^D#I see the snow and ^G#feel the wind ^D#blowing.. ^D#your nightie's hugging them ^A#long johns of ^D#mine.

#4.

^D#The noises you made at ^G#our supper ^D#table.. ^D#your habits, my dear, were surely a^A#bsurd. But ^D#how many times do ^G#I have to ^D#tell you.. ^D#soup is a dish to be ^A#seen and not ^D#heard.

CHORUS:

#5.

^D#Remember you phoned me, a-^G#sobbin' and ^D#cryin'.. ^D#the dog bit your ma, and drug her a^A#round. You ^D#said she looked pale and ^G#thought she was ^D#dying.. ^D#I said, 'Don't worry,' I'll ^A#buy a new ^D#hound.'

#6.

^D#I had six kids and ^G#you had e^D#leven..and we had a boy, and they grew like ^A#flowers. I ^D#wish you'd come back, with^G#out you ain't ^D#Heaven.. ^D#cause your kids and my kids are ^A#beatin' up ^D#ours.

CHORUS:

OUTRO:

I ^D#searched the world over, and ^G#thought I found ^D#true love. ^D#You met another and ^A#Phht! you..were..^D#gone.
