The Door

G

Am

C

I’ve heard the sound of my dear old mama cry-ing

D7

G

And the sound of the train that took me off to war

C

And the awful sound of a thousand bombs ex-ploding

Am

D7

And I wondered if I could take it anymore

G

C

There were times when they almost drove me crazy

D7

G

But I did my best and took it like a man

Am

C

But who would think in my lonely room I’d h-ear it

D7

G

The one sound in the world my heart can’t stand

C

To hear that sound and to know it’s really over

G

D7

Through tear stained eyes I watched her walk away

G

And of earthquakes storms guns and war

C

Lord nothing has ever hurt me more

G

D7

G

Than that lonely sound the closing of the door

C

Lord nothing has ever hurt me more

G

D7

G

Than that lonely sound the closing of the door
