[Gm] [Cm]
A [Gm] chair is still [Fm] a chair, even when there's [Eb] no one sitting [Gm] there.
[Db]
[Cm] [Ab] But a chair [Abm] is not a house, [G] and [Eb] a house is not [Db] a home, [Ab] when there's no one there.
To hold you tight and no one there, you can kiss
[Eb] goodnight.
A room [Ab] is still a room, [Cm] even when [Ab] there's [Eb] nothing there but glue.
[Db] [Eb] But [Ab] a room [G] is a house, [Cm] and a house is not [Bbm] a home, [Eb]
[Ab] when the two of us are [Fm] far apart,
and one of us
[Bbm] has a broken
[Eb] heart.
[Ab] Now and then I'll call your name, and [Gm] suddenly [Abm] your face [C] appears,
but it's just [F] a crazy [Dm] [Gm] [C] game.
[F] When it ends, [Dm] [Fm] it [Cm]
ends [Fm] in [G] [Gm]
tears.
[G]
[F] [G]
[E] [A] Darling, have a heart.
Don't let one mistake [E] keep us

[A] [Ab]
[Dbm] send you [Bm] out [E] when [A] I'm lying on the stairs, and [Dbm] turn [Gbm] the key, oh please be there,
[E]
[Bm] still in love [E] with me.
