Theres The Door
View chords used in this chart
C
I wandered in around midnight
Like I've done so many times
F
She was sitting at the table
G7 C
There were no tears in her eyes
It seemed so much unlike her
To be so much at ease
F
She took a sip of coffee
G7 C
And softly said to me
F
There's the mantle where
C
We keep our wedding picture
G7
There's the bedroom where
C
We make both love and war
F
And there's the ring that keeps
C
On slipping off your finger
D7 G7
There's no reason we should go on anymore
C
And there's the door
So I'm back here on this bar stool
My whole world gone to hell
F
Behind the bottles there's a mirror
G7 C
Where a fool can see himself
If I was the man I should be
And not the one I am
F
I would go back there this minute
G7 C
And beg for one more chance
F
There's the jukebox
C
Where I wasted all those quarters
G7
Oh there's a lady trying to
C
Get me out on the floor
F
And there's a chance the one I love
C
Would still forgive me
D7 G7
It's a step that I just never took before
C
There's the door
