 #1.
 F                          Dm 
 Why did you say goodbye to me?
 Bb                       C  
 Now I'm as lonely as can be.
 F                        Dm    
 And as I feel a teardrop fall..
 Bb                           C     
 I hear your footsteps in the hall..
 C                  F   
 walkin' away..from me..
 
 CHORUS:
 F                       
 Why did you say goodbye?
 Dm                      
 Why did you make me cry?
 Bb                     C   
 Now every day I wonder why,
 
 why, oh why, oh why, oh..
 F          Dm         Bb         C          
 Footsteps..footsteps..footsteps..footsteps..
 
 #2.
 F                      Dm      
 You're such a haunting memory..
 Bb                              C  
 I pray that you'll come back to me.
 F                       Dm       
 But as I say my evening prayers..
 Bb                           C       
 I hear your footsteps on the stairs..
 C                   F   
 a-walkin' away from me..
 
 CHORUS:
 F                       
 Why did you say goodbye?
 Dm                      
 Why did you make me cry?
 Bb                     C   
 Now every day I wonder why,
 
 why, oh why, oh why, oh..
 F          Dm         Bb         C          
 Footsteps..footsteps..footsteps..footsteps..
 
 OUTRO:
 F          Dm         Bb         C
