[Intro 1]
[G][Am][Em][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
Claire had all [Am]but
given up,
[D]When she[C] and[G] Edwin fell i[D]n love.[Em]
[D]She touched his fac[Am]e and shook her hea[D]d,
In [C]dis[G]belief, she [D]sighed [F#dim]and said:[B]
[Am]"In many dreams I've
[Bm]held you [C]near,
"Now, at [G]last,
you're [Am]really [D]here.

[Verse 2]
[G]"Where've [Em]you [C]been?"
"I've looked for you forever
and [G]a day."
"Where've [Em]you [C]been?"
[Em]"I'm just not myself when [D]you're [G]away."

[Verse 3]
[D]He asked her for her han[Am]d for[D] life,
[C]And she [G]became a sal[D]esman's wif[Em]e.[D]
He was home each [Am]night by [D]eight,
But [C]one stormy [G]evening, he [D]was[F#dim] late.[B]
[Am]Her frightened tears fell
[Bm]to t[G]he floor,[C]
Until [G]his key [Em]turned [Am]in
[D]the door.

[Verse 4]
[G]"Where've [Em]you [C]been? "
"I've looked for you forever
and [G]a day."
"Where've [Em]you [C]been?"
[Em]"I'm just not myself when
[D]you're away."
[G][C][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[C]They'd never spent a night apart,
[Em]For sixty years, she heard him [C]snore.
Now they're in a hospital,
[G]In separa[Am]te beds on different flo[D]ors.

[Verse 6]
[D]
Claire soon lost her [Am]memory,[D]
[C]For[G]got the names of [D]family.
[Em]She [D]never spoke
[Am]a word [D]again,
[C]Then [G]one day, they whe[D]eled him[F#dim] in.[B]
[Am]He held her hand and stroked
[Bm]her hair[C],
In [G]a fragile [Am]voice she [D]said:

[Verse 7]
[G]"Where've [Em]you [C]been? "
"I've looked for you forever
and [G]a day."
"Where've [Em]you [C]been?"
"I'm just not myself when
you're [Em]away."
"No, [D]I'm just not myself
when you're [C]away."
