Verse
[Gmaj7] [G6] [Gmaj7]
Address un known,
[G6] [Am6] [D7]
not even a trace of you
[Em7] [Gmaj7]
Oh what I'd give
[G6] [Em7] [Eaug]
to see the face of you
Bridge
[Em9] [E7]
I was a fool to stay
[Abdim] [Am7] [Ebaug]
A way from you so long
[G6]
I should have known
[A7] [Am7] [D7]
there'd come a day when you'd be gone
Verse
[Gmaj7] [G6] [Gmaj7]
Address un known,
[G6] [Abdim] [Am6] [D7]
oh how could I be so blind?
[Em9] [E7]
To think that you
[Bdim] [Am7] [E7]
would never be hard to find?
[Dm7]
From the place of your birth

to the ends of the earth
[G6] [A9]
I've searched only to find,
[A9] [Bdim] [Am7] [Adim] [G6]
only to find, address unknown

Verse
(Spoken over chords)
[Gmaj7]
Address unknown, honey child,
[Am6]
I ain't even got a trace of ya
[G6] [Gmaj7] [Bm7]
You know one thing?
[G6] [Em7]
I'd give anything in the world
[Am7]
just to see the face of ya
[Em9] [E7]
I was a fool to stay away from
[Abdim] [Am7] [Ebaug]
you and everything else so long
[G6]
I should have been diplomatic and
[A7] [Am7]
figured that some day
[Am6] [D7]
You'd be solid gone
