A F#m9 C#m7 D (2x)

[Verse 1]
    A                   F#m9
I know the world keeps turning
      C#m7        D
And everybody's hurting
   A             F#m9       
I love you and I hate to see 
      C#m7 D
you go
         A                  
I still see you through the 
 F#m9
window
  C#m7               D
I hear you when the wind blows
    A            F#m9          
I'm sorry that you had to leave         
    C#m7 D
alone

[Chorus]
    A               F#m9     
So tell me, tell me where did 
       C#m7
you go
     D              A       
If heavens got a telephone, 
     F#m9            C#m7
just call me and say
           D
I miss you, I miss you
A                 F#m9      
On and on and and round and 
         C#m7
round we go
     D          A
Is anybody home
             F#m9
I called a thousand times
        C#m7         D         
'Cause I, I miss you, 'cause I 
         A F#m9 C#m7 D
miss you
