Intro A

I hear the D4 doorbell D ring
and D4 sudden-D ly the A panic takes me
The sound so D4 omi-D nously
D4 tearing D through the A silence
I cannot Am move, I’m standing
Em numb and frozen
Among the things I love so D dearly
A The books, the paintings and the G furniture D A help me

The signal’s D4 sounding D once
a-D4 gain and D someone A tries the door-knob
None of my D4 friends would D be
so D4 stupid-D ly im-A patient
And they don’t Am dare to come here A2 Am
Em Anymore now
But how I loved our secret D meetings
A We talked and talked in quiet G voices D A smiling

A Now I hear them G moving, D muffled A noises coming
A through the door, I G feel I’m D crackin’ A up
A Voices growing G louder, D irri-A tation building
A And I’m close to G fainting D crackin’ A up

A They must know by G now I’m D in here A trembling
In a A terror ever-G growing D crackin’ A up
A My whole world is G falling, D going A crazy
There is A no escaping G now, I’m D crackin’ A up

Instr A Em Em A A Em Em D x 2 A A4

These walls have D4 witnessed D all the
D4 anguish D of hu-A miliation
And seen the D4 hope of D freedom
D4 glow in D shining A faces
And now they’ve Am come to take me A2 Am
Em Come to break me
And yet it isn’t unex-D pected
A I have been waiting for these G visitors D A help me

A Now I hear them G moving, D muffled A noises coming
A through the door, I G feel I’m D crackin’ A up
A Voices growing G louder, D irri-A tation building
A And I’m close to G fainting D crackin’ A up

A They must know by G now I’m D in here A trembling
In a A terror ever-G growing D crackin’ A up
A My whole world is G falling, D going A crazy
There is A no escaping G now, I’m D crackin’ A up
