I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO HIM
Harry Chapin

Capo: I

 D                   D/C#
  I'm the green young gentleman,
                 Bm            Bm/A
  and you're the lady with the past
    Bm/G#      G6            Em/F#    Em/E      A7/sus A
  I admit I'm insecure about how long we will last
  D                    D/C#     Bm
  I sort through in my mind the little that
    Bm/A         Bm/G#        G     Em/F#
  I know But the only things I find from where
     Em/E    A7/sus A       G       A
  my musings go Is     that kind of confusion that just
  D          D/C#      Bm   Bm/A
  makes more questions come
            Em             Bbdim          Bm
  About the wild and shady world that you must have
           Bm/A     G                   A
  wondered from You see, I have no real complaints of how
          D        D/C#    Bm Bm/A
  you've left your past behind
    Em                 Bbdim             Bm
  I guess what gets me worried is you've erased him from
       Bm/A  Em Asus A
  your mind
  
    D           D#o7        F#m Db7
  I wonder what happened to him
  G              A
  Your past is a canyon
        D        D/C#      Ddim6/7
  I'm a stranger on the rim
     F#m        C9
  Looking down below
                G          Ddim6
  To where it's misty and dim
      D                   D#07
  But where there's still shining
    F#m                Db7
  A faint glow from a light
              G            A        D    Am
  It makes me wonder where he is tonight
               D                  D/C#
  There's That drawer of your old photographs
             Bm                  Bm/A
  sits there like detective's leads
           Bm/G#          G6
  With the packet full of letters
         Em/F#  Em/E      Asus  A
  that I do not dare to read
      D                  D/C#
  And then there is that negligee
          Bm              Bm/A
  that is made for candlelight
                 Bm/G#          G6
  You know, I've never seen you wear it,
         Em/F#    Em/E     Asus  A
  was it used the other nights?
           G                A
  You see, dream-lover of a lady,
       D         D/C#   Bm   Bm/A
  what shakes me to the core
         Em             Bbdim
  Is the thought as you caress me,
         Bm              Bm/A
  you've done this all before
    G               A              D
  I think about the future with me out
      D/C#    Bm Bm/A
  and others in
          Em           Bbdim
  Will I, too, have disappeared like
       Bm         Bm/A    Em Asus A
  I've never ever been?
   D           D#o7        F#m Db7
  I wonder what happened to him
  G              A

              G            A
  It makes me wonder where he Is...
    D      D/C#        Ddim6/7
  I wonder where he is
   F#m           C6              G    A      D
  Can't help but wonder where he is...tonight
