[G]
I've heard the sound of my dear old mama [F] [C] crying
And [D] the sound of the train that took me [G] off to war
[D] And
[C] [Bm] [G] the awful sound of a thousand bombs [F] [C] exploding
And [A] I wondered if I could take it [Am] anymore
[D]
There [G] were times when they almost drove [F] me [C] crazy
But [D] I did my best, I took it [G] like a man
[D]
[G] But who'd think in my lonely room [F] I'd [C] hear it
[D] The one sound in the world my heart [G] can't stand
To hear that sound and to know it's [F] real
[C]
Through tear-stained eyes I [G] watched her [D] walk [A] away
[D]
[C] And [G] of earthquake, storms, guns and wars
[C] Lord, nothing has [A] ever hurt me more
Than [G] that lonely sound [D] of closing [G] of the door
[Eb]
[Ab] And of earthquake, [Cm] storms, [Ab]
guns and wars
[Db] Lord, nothing has [Bb] ever [D] hurt me [Bb] more
[Ab] Than that lonely sound [Eb] of closing of [Bbm] the door
[Cm] [Gb] [Ab] [N]
