There Goes My Everything

Elvis Presley


Tom: A

I hear [A]footsteps [D]slowly [A]walking,
as they gently walk a[E7]cross a lonely [A]floor.
[E7]And a [A]voice is [D]softly [A]saying:
"Darling this will be good[E7]bye for ever[A]more."

[A]There goes my [E7]reason for [A]liv[E7] - [A]ing,[A7]
[D]there goes the [E7]one of my [A]dreams.[E7]
[A]There goes my [A7]only pos[D]session,
[A]there goes my [E7]ev'ry[A]thing.[E7]

As my [A]mem'ry [D]turns back the [A]pages,
I can see the happy [E7]years we had be[A]fore.
[E7]Now the [A]love that [D]kept this old heart [A]beating
has been shattered by the [E7]closing of the [A]door.

[A]There goes my [E7]reason for [A]liv[E7] - [A]ing,[A7]
[D]there goes the [E7]one of my [A]dreams.[E7]
[A]There goes my [A7]only pos[D]session,
[A]there goes my [E7]ev'ry[A]thing.[E7]
