©1999 Nick Fessler
Tuning: Standard (EADGBE), Capo I, Tempo: 120
Intro: G, D, C, C
. G, D, C C
.
While washing your face the telephone rings G, D
And you get some soap in your eye C, D
You answer and try to explain G, D
I listen but will not cry C, D
So the sound of my voice is but a whisper Em, C; Em, C
As you listen to the whisper of goodbye Em, D; G, G
.
Can you hear the roaring silence of the wind C, D, Em, Em
Can you see the clouds drift across the sky C, D, Em, Em
Can you feel the rain as it washes down your skin C, D, G, Em
As you listen to the whisper of goodbye C, D, G, G
.
We meet again on a cold winter evening G, D
To embrace one last time C, D
Good-byes like this are never easy G, D
And sometimes feel like a crime C, D
So the sound of my voice is but a whisper Em, C; Em, C
As you listen to the whisper of goodbye Em, D, G, G
.
Can you hear the roaring silence of the wind C, D, Em, Em
Can you see the clouds drift across the sky C, D, Em, Em
Can you feel the rain as it washes down your skin C, D, G, Em
As you listen to the whisper of goodbye C, D, G, G

Whispering wind, C(9), C(9); G, G
whispering clouds, C(9), C(9); G, G
Whispering rain, C(9), C(9); G, G
all crying out loud… C(9), C(9); D, D
.
I’ve gone but I’ve not forgotten G, D
And some memories refuse to die C, D
Like a simple touch of your gentle hand G, D
That could cause my hopes to fly C, D
To where the sound of your voice still whispers Em, C; Em, C
As I listen to the whisper of goodbye Em, D; G, G
.
Can you hear the roaring silence of the wind C, D, Em, Em
Can you see the clouds drift across the sky C, D, Em, Em
Can you feel the rain as it washes down your skin C, D, G, Em
As you listen to the whisper of goodbye C, D, G, G
.
Can you feel the rain as it washes down your skin C, D, G, Em
As you listen to the whisper of goodbye C, D, G [hold]
