STRANGE SOUND
(Kitson/Kitson)

Transcribed by Phil Gardner


A       D                 A                D                A
I don't know when I'll be home, when did I have to say that last,
            D           G          D
I should be happy to be single and free,
A            D                  A                D                 A
'Cause I can stretch out in the bed, and I don't have to clean the bath,
        D                 G         D
I don't understand what's bothering me.

           A              D          G     D
There's no noise from the phone, radio or TV,
           A               D             G           D
There's no sighs, slaps or tears, no one shouting at me,
        A         D            Em           G        A     D-A-D-A-D-G-D
There's only this silence, and that's such a strange sound.

A        D              A         D               A
I didn't ever think I'd mind, the sound of my own voice,
      D             G        D
I was happy with my own company.
A         D              A             D                    A
So why am I surprised to find, it only works when there's a choice,
            D                   G          D
When no one tells you, well you never told me.

           A              D         G      D
There's no noise from the phone, radio or TV,
           A               D             G           D
There's no sighs, slaps or tears, no one shouting at me,
        A         D            Em           G        A    D-A-D
There's only this silence, and that's such a strange sound.

Em   D          A      Em    D           A
If I said I was sorry, would it sound so strange,
Em D           F#m                                  A-D-A-D
I know I sound lovely, it's not a sound I'm used to.

           A              D          G     D
There's no noise from the phone, radio or TV,
           A               D             G           D
There's no sighs, slaps or tears, no one shouting at me,
        A         D            Em           G        A           
There's only this silence, and that's such a strange sound.
D              A      D              A
Such a strange sound, it's a strange sound,
D              G      D       A     D
Such a strange sound, strange sound.

           A                         D
There's no noise from the phone, radio or TV,
   A                              D
No sighs, slaps or tears, no one shouting at me,
        A                      D
There's only this silence, and that's what I found,
G              D               A
Walking around, such a strange sound.
