Where Does It Go When It's Gone?

From Horizons

Music and lyrics © 1974, 2010 Bob Zentz

 

Chorus:

          Where does it go when it’s gone?  (A-E-A)

          Where does it go when it’s gone?  (D-A)

          You feel just like staying but you gotta move on  (D-A-F#m)

          And where does it go when it’s gone?  (A-E-A)

 

When I think of the money I’ve spent

Stolen or borrowed or lent

I just can’t remember what I blew it all on

And where does it go when it’s gone?  (chorus)

 

Well I loved me and left me a few

But that was before I met you

Now I’m missing my wallet and the train that you’re on

And where does it go when it’s gone?  (chorus)

 

Well, I drank me some home-brew last night

It improved my smell and my sight

But I asked when I woke up on someone’s front lawn

Tell me where does it go when it’s gone  (chorus)

 

No money, no love, and no booze

Lord, I lost everything I could lose

If I didn’t have bad luck, I’d have no luck at all

And that’s where it goes when it’s gone  (chorus)

 

          Where does it go when it’s gone?

          Where does it go when it’s gone?

          You feel just like staying but you gotta move on

          And that's where it goes when it’s gone
