G                    C 
There goes my only possession, 
 G             D     G - D7 
There goes my everything.  
 
(verse 1) 
         G         C      G 
I hear footsteps slowly walking, 
                       D              G - D7 
As they gently walk across a lonely floor, 
        G        C      G 
And a voice is softly saying, 
                           D              G - D7 
Darling, this will be good-bye for ever more. 
 

 G             D          G  G7 
There goes my reason for li-ving, 
 C              D           G - D7 
There goes the one of my dreams, 
 G                    C 
There goes my only possession, 
 G             D     G - D7 
There goes my everything.  
 
(verse 2) 

As my memory turns back the pages, 

I can see the happy years we had before, 

Now the love that kept this old heart beating, 

Has been shattered by the closing of the door. 
 

 G             D          G  G7 
There goes my reason for li-ving, 
 C              D           G - D7 
There goes the one of my dreams, 
 G                    C 
There goes my only possession, 
 G             D     G - D7 
There goes my everything. 
 G             G7       C 
There goes my only possession, 
 G             D     C - G 
There goes my everything.
