Key: C
Introduction:
C# F# C#
On a park bench the old man sat and stared into yester-day
C# F# G#
I sat down beside him and said thank God for this quiet place
F# G#
Between the wife and kids the tv and phone
C# F#
seems something always going on
C# G# C#
He said son if you think this is quiet you should follow me home
C# F#
Cause You ain't heard nothing yet
G# C#
Till you've live in a house by your-self
C# F#
When silence is all you've got left
Eb G#
In the rooms where your babies have slept
C# B Bb A
So don't wish for something you will re-gret
C# G# C# F#E Eb C#
Cause you ain't heard nothing yet
