  			A                D      A 
I hear footsteps slowly walkin, 
                     E             A 
As they gently walk across the lonely floor. 
               D      A 
And a voice is softly sayin, 
                        E            A 
Darlin this will be goodbye for ever more. 

A 
There goes my reason for livin, 
D              E         A 
There goes the one of my dreams. 
                     D 
There goes my only possesion, 
A             E    A 
There goes my everything. 
 
A                   D        A 
As my memories turn back the pages, 
		    E               A 
I can see the happy years we've had before. 
                  D                   A 
How the love that kept this old heart beating, 
                         E            A 
Has been shadered by the closing of a door.
