Where Did The Beat Go

	  		Intro: Ebm Db Ebm Db 

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
Ba da ba bum 
Oh oh oh oh 
Ba da ba bum 
Ba da ba bum 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 

F#                               Ebm 
I can hear planes flyin' over my head 
                      B           Db 
Just hours before you occupied my bed 
Ebm                            Abm 
In our darkness we conjured up sunlight 
Ebm                          Abm               Db 
In our haste, our need, our thirst we lost our sight 
Ebm                                          B 
But I was inspired tracing the lines on your face 
       Ebm                                Db                
To the poetry the first time I heard your name 
       Ebm                    Db               Abm 
When I trip from your lips my heart was like a kick-drum 
       Ebm                          Db             Ebm 
And it silenced the guilt, I wasn't raised to hurt anyone 

Ebm          
Uh oh, does he know 
                           Db 
That I'm lyin' in the afterglow 
                           B 
That I'm lyin' but I can't go, can't say no 
B                   Db 
Make him think he's crazy 
                   Ebm 
While his paranoia grows 
Ebm                Db 
What he should be asking 
                      B  
Is where did our love go 
                   Db 
Then I wouldn't be baskin' 
                      Ebm 
In another man's afterglow 
Ebm 
Where did the beat go? 
Db 
Where is the beat? 
Ebm 
Where did the beat go? 

F#                          Ebm 
So how do I justify to the judge and the jury 
                  B                     Db 
The voices in my head that caused this fury 
Ebm                                 Abm 
Never had to play with matches to start a fire 
Ebm                        Abm                  Db 
But it got so cold and I thought I'd forgotten desire 
            Ebm                    B 
I was your concubine and then your Madonna 
              Ebm                            Db                
You couldn't see anything beyond your baby's mama 
     Ebm             Db         Abm 
How long is lonely supposed to last? 
       Ebm          Db                  Ebm 
I was naked and waiting for you to come back 



Ebm          
Uh oh, does he know 
                           Db 
That I'm lyin' in the afterglow 
                           B 
That I'm lyin' but I can't go, can't say no 
B                   Db 
Make him think he's crazy 
                   Ebm 
While his paranoia grows 
Ebm                Db 
What he should be asking 
                      B  
Is where did our love go 
                   Db 
Then I wouldn't be baskin' 
                      Ebm 
In another man's afterglow 
Ebm 
Where did the beat go? 
Db 
Where is the beat? 
Ebm 
Where did the beat go? 

In another man's afterglow... 

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 

Ebm                                            Db 
There's a cause and effect although I took the steps 
Abm                               B 
I dove off the bridge cause I had nothing left 
Ebm                   Db 
All I ever wanted was you 
Ebm                   Db 
And in the absence of you 
B Db   Ebm 
I fell through 


Ebm          
Uh oh, does he know 
                           Db 
That I'm lyin' in the afterglow 
                           B 
That I'm lyin' but I can't go, can't say no 
B                   Db 
Make him think he's crazy 
                   Ebm 
While his paranoia grows 
Ebm                Db 
What he should be asking 
                      B  
Is where did our love go 
                   Db 
Then I wouldn't be baskin'
