Verse 1 (Picked)

D            A               G                   D
I can hear a heart beat that seems a little strong
D          A                     G
I can hear the things that I did wrong
D              A           G               D
I can hear her thoughts by lookin in her eyes
D          A                 G     D
I can hear all the times she cried

Verse 2

I can hear the memories as they echo off the wall
Fallin from the pictures down the hall
I can hear regret buildin up inside of me
I can hear all the things I could not see

Chorus (Strummed)

              D           Em       G
Those are the sounds of a woman leavin
D                 A                G
Stronger than the wind in a willow tree
              D           Em       G
Those are the sounds of a heart breakin
          G               A               D  
You can't hear it but the noise is killin me

Verse 2

I should have heard it comin but I chose to pretend
I should have recognised that sound way back then
But I just wouldn't listen didn't want to all those years
Now the truth is ringin clearly in my ears
