[Chords]
Am: x02210
C: x32010
Dm: xx0231
G: 320033
 
(For G, you can also play a 320003 but adding the 3rd on the
B string sounds good together with the lead).

[Verse 1]
       C
To my favorite teacher, told me never give up
        Am
To my fifth grade crush, who I thought I really loved
        Dm                    G
To the guys I miss, and the girls we kissed
                C  (You can fill in the intro lick here)
Where are you now?
       C
To my ex-best friends, don't know how we grew apart
        Am
To my favorite bands, and sing-alongs in my car
         Dm
To the face I see in my memories
               C
Where are you now?
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Where are you now? 'Cause I'm thinking of you
               Am
You showed me how, how to live like I do
         Dm                     G             C
If it wasn't for you, I would never be who I am
 
 
[Verse 2]
        C
To my first girlfriend I thought for sure was the one
        Am
To my last girlfriend, sorry that I screwed it up
        Dm                        G
To the ones I loved, but didn't show it enough
                C     G
Where are you now?
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Where are you now? 'Cause I'm thinking of you
               Am
You showed me how, how to live like I do
        Dm                      G             F G C
If it wasn't for you, I would never be who I am
 
 
[Bridge]
                             F      G    C
I know we'll never see those days again
                              F     G
And things will never be that way again
           C             Am           F
But that's just how it goes, people change, but I know
            G
I won't forget you
 
 
[Instrumental Solo]
D Bm Em A D
 
 
[Verse 3]
        D
To the ones who cared and who were there from the start
         Bm
To the love that left and took a piece of my heart
        Em                       A
To the few who'd swear I'd never go anywhere
                D
Where are you now?
 
(Use this lick from now on. Easier played with a barred Dmaj)
e |-----------5--------------|
B |-----5--7--------7--5-----|
G |--7--------------------7--|
D |--------------------------|
A |--------------------------|
E |--------------------------|
 
[Chorus]
               D
Where are you now? 'Cause I'm thinking of you
               Bm
You showed me how, how to live like I do
        Em                      A             Bm    D
If it wasn't for you, I would never be who I am
        Em                      A             Bm    D
If it wasn't for you, I would never be who I am
        Em                     A
If it wasn't for you, I'd be nothing
                D
Where are you now?
 
(Play that last lick here 4 times. End it with a strum. Play with receding tempo for drama!)
