Intro: [G]
{c: }
I’ve [G] heard the sound of my dear old mama [F] cry[C]ing
And the [D] sound of the train that took me off to [G] war [D] [Em]
The [G] awful sound of a thousand bombs ex[F]plo[C]ding
And I [Am] wondered if I could take it any[C]more[D]
{c: }
There were [G] times when they almost drove me [F] cra[C]zy
But I [D] did my best and took it like a [G] man [D]
And [G] who would think in my lonely room =’d [F] hear [C] it
The [D] one sound in the world my heart can’t [G] stand
{c: }
[NC] To hear that sound and to [G] know its really [F] o[C]ver
Through tear stained eyes I [G] watched her walk a[D]way [A] [D]
And of [G] earthquakes storms and guns and war
Lord [C] nothing has ever [A] hurt me more than that [G] lonely sound
The [D] closing of the [G] door
{c: }
(Key change to G#)
[Eb] And of [Ab] earthquakes storms and guns and war
Lord [Db] nothing ever [D] hurt me more than that [Ab] lonely sound
The [Eb] closing of the [Ab] door
