In the studio version, the high e string is very faint and the song
is even easier to play if you simply mute the high e string with
the palm of your left hand.

[Progression]
Except for the bridge, the entire song is a simple
I - V7 - I - IV   progression in the key of G (relative to capo)
So, just keep playing the following chords for one bar each:
G - D7/F# - G - C/G



[Intro]
G   D7/F#   G   C/G
G   D7/F#   G   C/G


[Verse]
G                 D7/F#                       G
  I was out on my own, wondering where I have gone
                   C/G                         G
I don't know about today, clear me out, get me calm
                   D7/F#                       G
Walking out in the night, feeling old, getting tired
                  C/G                        G
Of that ol' known time, when I'm tired of my mind


[Chorus]
                      D7/F#
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      C/G
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      D7/F#
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      C/G
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?


[Verse]
                   D7/F#                       G
I don't need to go far, but the time's getting hard
                    C/G                        G
In the wind howling day, in the light that you saw
                     D7/F#                  G
I don't know what to say? Does it matter anyway
                     C/G                     G
I'll just write me a poem, to get out of the storm


[Chorus]
                      D7/F#
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      C/G
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      D7/F#
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      C/G
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?


[Bridge]
Bm/F#                 D7/F#                 G                Am
      Wanna know my reflection in the sunny sky-ah-ah-ah-ay
Bm/F#                 C/G                     G      D7/F#
      Wanna know my reflection in your loving eye - eye - mhm

Where'd my light go?
                      D7/F#
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      C/G
Where'd my light go?
                      G
Where'd my light go?
                      D7/F#
Where'd my light go?
