The Door

     G                                   F   C
I've heard the sound of my dear old mama crying
        D7                                     G   D
And the sound of the train that took me off to war
    G                                 F  C
The awful sound of a thousand bombs exploding
      A                       Am       D7
And I wondered if I could take it anymore

[Verse 2]
           G                               F  C
There were times when they almost drove me crazy
      D7                             G  D
But I did my best and took it like a man
    G                                     F    C
And who would think in my lonely room I'd hear it
    D                                     G
The one sound in the world my heart can't stand

[Chorus]
N.C.                          G         Dm     F  C
To hear that sound [*] and to know it's really over
        G                                     D  A  D
Through tear stained eyes I watched her walk away
       G
And of earthquakes, storms, and guns and war
     C                A                      G
Lord nothing has ever hurt me more than that lonely sound
    D              G    G#
The closing of the door

       G#
And of earthquakes, storms, and guns and war
     C#               A#                     G#
Lord nothing has ever hurt me more than that lonely sound
    D#             G#
The closing of the door
