I Thought I Heard You Knocking Chords & Lyrics - Mark Erelli

[INTRO]
[Em] [D] [Em] [D] [Em] [D] [Em] [D]

[VERSE]
I [Em]thought I heard you knocking
As I [D]sprung up from my chair
[Am]Flung the door wide open
There was [C]no one standing [D]there

[VERSE]
It's getting [Em]harder every moment
To [D]tell what's really [G]real
Sometimes it [Am]ain't the things you know
It's [B7]more the way you fe[Em]el [D]

[VERSE]
I thought I heard you [Em]knocking
Tapping [D]soft and light
Like the [Am]sounds an old house offers
When it [C]settles for the [D]night

[VERSE]
You used to [Em]be just as familiar
Like [D]whiskey on my [G]breath
Now when[Am]ever you come calling
You [B7]scare me half to [Em]death

[BRIDGE]
[D]Haven't you a[C]lready had [B7]your fun
Or [D]maybe this has [C]only just be[B7]gun
You got me [D]wondering should I [C]stay or should [B7]run
Won't you [D]tell me what you [C]think it is I've [B7]done

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[Em] [D] [Em] [D] [Em] [D]
[G] [Am] [B7] [Em] [D]

[VERSE]
I [Em]thought I heard you knocking
Like a [D]hard rain tumbling down
When I [Am]strain my ears to listen
I can [C]scarcely hear a [D]sound

[VERSE]
Some [Em]questions they got answers
And you [D]never ask [G]again
Some [Am]questions only lead
To places the [B7]you've already [Em]been

[BRIDGE]
Ohh, it's [D]such a dark and [C]bitter seed [B7]you've sown
I've [D]got a worried feeling [C]deep down in my [B7]bones
If [D]I look at you, [C]will I just turn to [B7]stone?
I [D]don't know why [C]you won't leave me a[B7]lone[G] ...

[VERSE]
I [Em]thought I heard you knocking
Sharp and [D]shallow on my door
But [Am]babe, I just ain't got the heart
To [B7]answer any[Em]more
