 [intro]<br/>
              D                       G      A                 D<br/>
 See what you lost when you left this world,   this sweet old world<br/>
          D                       Em                 A        A<br/>
 What you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world<br/>
     D                    G         A              D<br/>
 The breath from your own lips, the touch of fingertips<br/>
   D         G      A    A<br/>
 A sweet and tender kiss<br/>
     D                   G      A                 D<br/>
 The sound of a midnight train, wearing someone's ring<br/>
 D       G         A       A<br/>
 Someone calling your name<br/>
 G     G            F#m        F#m<br/>
   Somebody so warm     cradled in your arm<br/>
 G             G                        A    A<br/>
   Didn't you think you were worth anything?<br/>
 <br/>
 See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world<br/>
 What you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world<br/>
 <br/>
 Millions of us in love, promises made good<br/>
 Your own flesh and blood<br/>
 Looking for some truth, dancing with no shoes<br/>
 The beat, the rhythm, the blues<br/>
 The pounding of your heart's drum together with another one<br/>
 Didn't you think anyone loved you?<br/>
 <br/>
 See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world<br/>
 What you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world<br/>
