[Verse]
E Bm E Bm E Bm A E A
Strange, when you leave me, rain comes down, down, down.
E Bm E Bm E Bm A E A
When you withdraw from me, towers come tumbling down, down, down.
[Chorus]
C#m F#m
Here comes the sound that I've been waiting for,
C#m F#m A
The sound that tells me when you're walking out my door.
[Verse]
E Bm E Bm E Bm A E A
Rob me blind, defenseless, my heart sinks down, down, down.
E Bm E Bm E Bm A E A E
I can't wave, I'm drowning and sinking fast, down, down, down, down.
[Chorus]
C#m F#m
Here comes the sound I've been expecting all these years,
C#m F#m
Here comes the sound of everything I've ever feared,
C#m F#m
Here comes the sound, the floors below me disappear,
C#m F#m A
Here comes the sound, I force my fingers in my ears.
[Bridge]
E Bm
I'm drinking from this bitter cup,
E Bm
The only place that's left is up,
E Bm E Bm A E A E
I could not fall no further than this, down, down, down, down.
[Chorus]
C#m F#m
Here comes the sound of someone crying in the rain,
C#m F#m A
Here comes the sound of someone pouring out their pain.
[Bridge 2]
E Bm A E Bm E
All lines of communication, down, down, down, down.
E Bm A E Bm E
My forces in retreat and running from this battleground.
[Chorus]
C#m F#m
Here comes the sound I've never heard before,
C#m F#m
The sound that tells me when you're walking out my door.
C#m F#m A
Here comes the sound of someone calling out for aid,
C#m F#m E
Here comes the sound of someone falling.
