Am                    G#0                        Am (Fill 1)
Where are those happy days..they seem so hard to find.
Am                 G#0                          Am (Fill 2)
I try to reach for you but you have closed your mind.
C                 G             Dm            Am
Whatever happened to our love?..I wish I understood.
Am               G#0                    Am (Fill3)
it used to be so nice, it used to be so good.
 
chorus:
 
C              G        Dm                F        C       Csus4 C
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me, S.O.S?
C            G        Dm               F        C      Csus4 C
The love you gave me, nothing less can save me, S.O.S.
            F             G#     Bb        C
When you're gone, how can I even try to go on?
            F              G#          Bb      C    C/B
When you're gone, though I try how can I carry on?
 
 
 
Am               G#0                         Am (Fill 1)
You seem so far away though you are standing near.
Am                G#0                        Am (Fill 2)
You made me feel alive but something died, I fear.          
C                 G           Dm             Am
I really tried to make it up,..I wish I understood.
Am                   G#0                    Am (Fill3)
What happened to our love, it used to be so good.

Wherever you see "G#0", replace that with a G (G Major) and you're good. Solid tab!
