Frankie Miller, Elton John, Steve Cropper - Where Do The Guilty Go? Lyrics

When the stars begin to tumble
There's a sadness in the sky
And you lose faith in a world you used to know
When the innocent have departed
And the hurt begins to grow
Tell me where, oh where do the guilty go?

Did you ever see the sun rise
Come to meet a brand new day?
And the birds in the trees didn't show
Have you stood out on a river bank (oh yeah)
And watched the waters cease to flow
And wondered where, oh where do the guilty go?

Did you ever feel so sad inside
Gutted to the bone?
And all the faith you had in justice is gone
Did you ever look into the sky
As the moon just lost it's glow?
Tell me where, oh where do the guilty go?
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
Tell me where, oh where do the guilty go?

Did you ever feel so sad inside
Gutted to the bone?
And all the faith you had in justice is gone
Did you ever look into the sky
As the moon just lost it's glow and wondered
Where, oh where do the guilty go? (Tell me where)

Tell me where (where), oh where do the guilty go?
Tell me where (ohh where), oh where do the guilty go?
