Jim Croce – One Less Set Of Footsteps (Ukulele)

[C]                [F]         [G]
We're been runnin' away from, 

[C]               [F]      [G]
Somethin' we both know, 

     [C]      [E7]   [F]       [C]
We've long run out of things to say,

      [F]      [C]    [Bb]   [G]
And I think I'd better go. 

[C]                   [F]    [G]
So don't be gettin' excited, 

        [C]       [Em]      [Am]  [D7]
When you hear that slammin' door, 

                   [C]             [G]
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps

          [F]               [C]
On your floor in the mornin'.

[C]                        [F]         [G]
And we've been hidin' from somethin',

                 [C]             [F]      [G]
That should have never gone this far,

[C]       [E7]     [F]        [C]
But after all it's what we've done,

     [F]      [C]    [Bb]   [G]
That makes us what we are.

[C]                        [F]    [G]
And you've been talkin' in silence, 

             [C]     [Em] [Am]  [D7]
Well if it's silence you adore, 

                [C]             [G]
Oh, there'll be one Less set of footsteps

          [F]               [C]
On your floor in the mornin'.

                 [F]                               [C]
Well there'll be one Less set of footsteps on your floor,

[F]      [Am]   [C] 
One Less man to walk in,

[F]                              [G] 
One Less pair of jeans upon your door,

[Am]     [D]     [G7]
One less voice a-talkin'.

[C]              [F]         [G]
But tomorrow's a dream away, 

      [C]               [F]         [G]
And today has turned to dust,

[C]         [E7]       [F]       [C]
Your silver tongue has turned to clay,

         [F]    [C]     [Bb]  [G]
And your golden rule to rust. 

[C]                        [F]         [G]
If that's the way that you want it,

                [C]   [Em]    [Am]  [D7]
Well that's the way I want it more, 

                   [C]             [G]
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps

          [F]          [C]
On your floor in the mornin'.

              [F]                         [C] 
Well there'll be one Less set of footsteps on your floor,

[F]      [Am]   [C] 
One Less man to walk in,

[F]                              [G] 
One Less pair of jeans upon your door,

[Am]     [D]     [G7]
One less voice a-talkin'.

[C]              [F]         [G]
But tomorrow's a dream away, 

      [C]               [F]         [G]
And today has turned to dust,

[C]         [E7]       [F]       [C]
Your silver tongue has turned to clay,

         [F]    [C]     [Bb]  [G]
And your golden rule to rust. 

[C]                        [F]         [G]
If that's the way that you want it,

                [C]   [Em]    [Am]  [D7]
Well that's the way I want it more, 

                   [C]             [G]
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps

          [F]          [C]
On your floor in the mornin'.
