Verse 1:
Don t bother cryin , don t bother crawlin
It s all over now, no use in stallin
The love I once felt, I don t feel anymore for you
This time I ll even open the door for you
You walked out when I was down
Well now I m well off
And look who s comin round
Chorus:
Where were you when I needed you
Where were you when I wanted you
Where were you when I needed you
CaddD G/B G/A G [as per intro]
Where..ere...ere
Verse 2:
You re lookin good, it s hard to fight it
But no use explainin , I ve already decided
That livin with you, it s worse than without you
I won t spend a lifetime a-worryin about you
Oh, things got rough and you disappeared
Now I m back on my feet
But look, look who s standing there
[repeat chorus]
Harpsichord solo:

Verse 3:
Oh, you were so young, and you were so wild
I knew you were nobody s innocent child
That first day I saw you, you really got to me
I thought I could change you, what good did it do me
Oh, things got rough and you wouldn t wait
Now you re tripping back
But babe, it s too late
