[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
we’re been runnin’ away from ,
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
somethin’ we both know ,
[ C ] [ E7 ] [ F ] [ C ]
we’ve long run out of things to say ,
[ F ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ G ]
and i think i’d better go .
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
so don’t be gettin’ excited ,
[ C ] [ Em ] [ Am ] [ D7 ]
when you hear that slammin’ door ,
[ C ] [ G ]
’cause there’ll be one less set of footsteps
[ F ] [ C ]
on your floor in the mornin’ .
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
and we’ve been hidin’ from somethin’ ,
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
that should have never gone this far ,
[ C ] [ E7 ] [ F ] [ C ]
but after all it’s what we’ve done ,
[ F ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ G ]
that makes us what we are .
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
and you’ve been talkin’ in silence ,
[ C ] [ Em ] [ Am ] [ D7 ]
well if it’s silence you adore ,
[ C ] [ G ]
oh , there’ll be one less set of footsteps
[ F ] [ C ]
on your floor in the mornin’ .
chorus :
[ F ] [ C ]
well there’ll be one less set of footsteps on your floor ,
[ F ] [ Am ] [ C ]
one less man to walk in ,
[ F ] [ G ]
one less pair of jeans upon your door ,
[ Am ] [ D ] [ G7 ]
one less voice A – talkin’ .
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
but tomorrow’s a dream away ,
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
and today has turned to dust ,
[ C ] [ E7 ] [ F ] [ C ]
your silver tongue has turned to clay ,
[ F ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ G ]
and your golden rule to rust .
[ C ] [ F ] [ G ]
if that’s the way that you want it ,
[ C ] [ Em ] [ Am ] [ D7 ]
well that’s the way i want it more ,
[ C ] [ G ]
’cause there’ll be one less set of footsteps
[ F ] [ C ]
on your floor in the mornin’ .
[ F ] [ C ]
well there’ll be one less set of footsteps on your floor ,
[ F ] [ Am ] [ C ]
one less man to walk in ,
[ F ] [ G ]
one less pair of jeans upon your door ,
[ Am ] [ D ] [ G7 ]
