When

Verse 1
D 
Em 
she's gone,
A 
D 
before it reaches your awareness
Em 
A 
G 
You may be cavalier and carer, but at the folding of the day,
A 
D 
that brittle pride will break away
Em 
Edim 
Asus4 
D 
And at  night, when the rain is at your window,
E 
Em 
Edim 
Asus4 
D 
Asus4 
D 
Em 
A 
you will finally begin to know the thunder of       goodbye
D 
Asus4 
D 
Em 
When she leaves,
A 
D 
the things you didn't say will haunt you
Watching the days she
Em 
used to  want you
A 
G 
Drifting out beyond your reach
A 
D 
Like the sunset from the beach
Em 
In every room
Edim 
Asus4 
There'll be regrets and empty
D 
Esus4 
spaces
E 
Em 
You will find no  sheltered places
Gm 
Edim 
Asus4 
From the thunder of
D 
Asus4 
D 
goodbyes
Em 
D 
Fools can never see it when it's there
Em 
Until they find a strand of hair
A 
Asus4 
G 
A  trace of perfume in       the air
A 
D 
Em 
The indentation in a chair
Fools don't see the constant
D 
and the true
Don't see the sunlight
Em 
shining through,
Asus4 
A 
G 
Don't    feel the storm begin to brew,
A 
Asus4 
Until there's nothing they     can
D 
Em 
A 
D 
Asus4 
D 
do.
Em 
When she goes,
A 
D 
you'll know how much is gone forever
Em 
Stitches that held your heart to  gether
A 
G 
The very sun that lit your sky
A 
D 
has left the best of you to die.
Em 
Through the night,
Edim 
the kitchen light will
Asus4 
just     keep burning
D 
E 
Em 
as if to guide her safe returning.
Gm 
F#aug 
And when the morning
Asus4 
D 
meets        your eye,
E 
you'll have to face
Em 
yourself and try
Gm 
Edim 
Take the thunder
Asus4 
of goodbye
