CHORUS
   G                      Em       C                  D 
Oh where, oh where can my baby be?  The Lord took her away from me
G                          Em                 C             
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good, so I can see my baby when
  D          /G---/----/
I leave this world



VERSE 1
G                           Em           C                D
We were out on a date in my daddy's car, we hadn't driven very far
G                  Em             C                        D
There in the road, straight ahead, the car was stalled, the engine was dead
G                     Em                         
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right. 
     C                D
I'll never forget the sound that night.
     G                   Em                
The screaming tires, the busted glass. 
    C                   D       /G---/----/
The painful scream that I heard last
 



CHORUS
   G                      Em       C                  D 
Oh where, oh where can my baby be?  The Lord took her away from me
G                          Em                 C             
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good, so I can see my baby when
  D          /G---/----/
I leave this world

 






VERSE 2
G                            Em            
When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down 
C                          D
There were people standing all around
G                    Em                   C                  D
Somethin warm going through my eyes, but somehow I found my baby that night
G                                Em
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said,
C                      D
“Hold me darling for a little while."

  G                              Em
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss 
C                       D
I found the love that I knew I had missed
G                        Em
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight.
  C                D          /G---/----/
I lost my love, my life, that night



CHORUS
   G                      Em       C                  D 
Oh where, oh where can my baby be?  The Lord took her away from me
G                          Em                 C             
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good, so I can see my baby when
  D          /G---/----/
I leave this world
