G   G   C   C   D   D   G   G
G             G                       C     C
You come home late and you come home early
D           D                        G     G
You come on big when you're feeling small
G             G                         C     C
You come home straight and you come home curly
D             D                  G    G
Sometimes you don't come home at all
G              G            C          C
So what in the world's come over you
D           D             G            G
And what in heaven's name have I done
G                 G                     C           C
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
D                  D                         G     G
You're out there running just to be on the run
G                G                       C     C
Well I got a heart that burns with a fever
D              D                        G     G
And I got a worried and a jealous mind
G                  G                         C     C
How can a love that'll last forever
D                D                  G    G
Get left so far behind
G                 G           C          C
So what in the world's come over you
D             D              G            G
And what in heaven's name have I done
G                     G                    C           C
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
D                  D                         G     G
You're out there running just to be on the run

It's a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow
D              D                        G     G
It's crossed the evil line today (?)
G                  G                         C     C
How can you ask about tomorrow
D                D                  G    G
When we ain't got one word to say
G                 G           C          C
So what in the world's come over you
D             D              G            G
And what in heaven's name have I done
