Hey, Hey, Lo-[E]retta
[E7] Why don’t you write a little [A] letter?

[A] I’ve been drivin’ up and down
[E] Every street in this old town
Asking all our friends, but they don’t [B7] know [B7]
[E] All they do is [E7] shake their heads
And [A] say it’s something that I said
Well, I’m [E] sorry baby, [B7] now, where did you [E] go? [E]*

What [A] ever happened to our song?
They’re [E] playin’ all the music wrong
I can hear my heartbeat on the stere-[B7]o [B7]
The [E] movie goers [E7] at the Mall
Say [A] you don’t come around at all
And [E] as my curtain [B7] falls, where did you [E] go? [E]*

{eoc}
[A] I can’t eat and I can’t sleep
And [E] I can’t make up if we can’t meet
How can I ever say "I love you [B7] so?" [B7]
I [E] know you’re somewhere [E7] in this town
And [A] before I turn it upside down
[E] Won’t you tell me [B7] now, where did you [E] go? [E]*
