(Dallas Frazier)


There goes my only possession
Oh, there goes my everything


I hear footsteps slowly walking
As they gently walk across the lonely floor
And a voice is softly saying
Darling this will be goodbye for evermore


* There goes my reason for living
Oh there goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possession
Oh there goes my everything


As my memory turns back the pages
I can see the happy years we've had before
Now the love that kept this old heart beating
Has been shattered by the closing of the door


* Repeat
There goes my only possession, Oh there goes my everything

There goes my everything

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]
