Where Did You Go

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I left you on the peg by the kitchen door Brown felt brim, sweatband worn thin You'd been with me through twelve hard winters Now the cold comes crawling in [Verse 2] Your crease held the shape of my tired hand Your ribbon had a coffee stain I checked the bus seat, the barber shop And walked that whole route again [Chorus] Where did you go, my old friend? Who pulled you from that chair? I got a head full of weather And nothing to put there Where did you go, my old friend? I still reach for you at night A man can lose a little hat And lose his whole way home tonight [Verse 3] The rain came down on Franklin Street I tipped my collar low A stranger wore a hat just like you But it wasn't you, I know [Bridge] I asked the clerk at the corner store She said, "Maybe someone found it" But every door I opened wide Had an empty hook around it [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Where did you go, my old friend? Who pulled you from that chair? I got a head full of weather And nothing to put there Where did you go, my old friend? I still reach for you at night A man can lose a little hat And lose his whole way home tonight [Outro] If you see that brown brim passing Tell it I am waiting still By the kitchen door at sundown With a place beneath the sill
