My Girl(Gone, Gone, Gone) - Chilliwack

Keeping with the Canadian rock, I have a double feature. Chilliwack, another Canadian band, was fairly big in the late 70's and early 80's, and one of my friends argues they would have been one of the best if they were more consistent, which I argue is the exact reason they aren't. They had some solid hits though, and one of my favorites is 1981's My Girl (Gone,Gone,Gone). Enjoy, and tomorrow we will see what some of the band got up to after the fact.

My Girl

Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
She been gone gone gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
She been gone gone gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
gone gone gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
wonder if I'm ever gonna see my girl
gone gone gones She's been
gone so long so long
wonder if I'm ever gonna see my girl

Ever since she left me
I sure feel all alone
A little misunderstanding
I can`t get her on the telephone
Hanging out down on Main Street
Living in a different world
Standing around
With the gang on the corner
Talking about my girl

My girl, she was the world to me
She`s gone away across the sea

My girl is just a memory
She been so long anyway


Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
She been gone gone gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
gone gone gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
she's been gone gone gone so long

She didn`t have to leave me
She didn`t have to run
She didn`t have to go
Without a word to anyone
I hope she`s doing alright
Got no way to know
Unless she gets to hear this song

Hear it on the radio

My girl, she was the world to me
She`s gone and that`s a tragedy
My girl is just a memory
She been so long anyway

Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
She been gone gone gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
She been gone gone gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
gone gone gone she's been gone so long
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
wonder if I'm ever gonna see my girl
Gone gone gone, she been gone so long
wonder if I'm ever gonna see my girl

Well, I hope she gets the message
Gotta get her back you know
Gonna track her down, I`ll find that girl
Gonna tell her that I love her so

Put the word on the grapevine
Spread it all around the world
Sooner or later, I know I`m gonna get her
Talking about my girl, my girl

My girl, my girl, my girl, my
girl (until fade)...
