Sounds Of Goodbye

F# A#m B C# \\ \\ \\ \\ F# A#m B C# \\ \\ \\ \\ F# A#m B Restless footsteps walking down the hallway, C# F# in the middle of the night, F# A#m I start hearing little sounds, B C# F# be-come so magni-fied here in the quiet, B A#m The kitchen phone that rings, G#m F# and when you answer quickly speaking, B A#m G#m In a whisper, I'm left to wonder why. A#m B C# I've got a lonely feeling that I'm hearing, F# A#m B C# The sounds of good-bye, F# A#m B C# The sounds of good-bye, F# A#m Stockinged feet that softly tiptoe, B C# F# through the room where I lay half a-sleep, F# A#m Clinking hangers, fumbling hands, B C# F# that close the closet door that always creaks, B A#m The snapping latches on the suitcase, G#m F# that you carried with you, B A#m G#m To your mother's on those weekends many times. A#m B C# I've got a lonely feeling that I'm hearing, F# A#m B C# The sounds of good-bye, F# A#m B D The sounds of good-bye, G Bm C The scratching of a pencil writing words, D G Bm C D upon a note I'll hate to read, G Bm The pounding in my heart so loud, C D G Bm C D it's drowning out the words I wanna speak, C Bm The kitchen light that switches off, Am G while I lay here a-lone, C Bm Am And sudden darkness echoes through my mind. Bm C D I've got a lonely feeling that I'm hearing, G Bm C D The sounds of good-bye, G Bm C D The sounds of good-bye. G Bm The clicking of your high heels, C D G Bm C D down the staircase and a-cross the marble floor, G Bm C I call your name and hear a deafening silence, D G Bm C D and the closing of a door, C Bm Am G A roaring motor in the street a stranger's cutting voice, C Bm Am Then a violent rush of teardrops to my eyes. Chorus 4 Bm C D I've got a lonely feeling that I'm hearing, G Bm C D The sounds of good-bye, G Bm C D The sounds of good-bye. G Bm C D The sounds of good-bye.
