  			Intro: D7M D6 Bm7 Bm5-/7 E7  

   A7M              D6                             A7M 
A chair is still a chair, even when there's no one sitting there 
A9     D7M           Fdim         F#m7           Em7 
But a chair is not a house, and a house is not a home 
A7/9-         D7M                      Bm7 
When there's no one there to hold you tight 
   D7M       D6  Bm7    Bm5-/7       A7M 
And no one there you can kiss good night 
   A7M             D6                              A7M 
A room is still a room, even when there's nothing there but gloom 
A9     D7M          Fdim         F#m7           Em7 
But a room is not a house, and a house is not a home 
A7/9-     D7M                Bm7 
When the two of us are far apart 
    D7M    D6 Bm7 Bm5-/7  E7  A7M 
And one of us has a  broken heart 

Bridge 

D      
Now and then I call your name 
     A                   Gdim 
And suddenly your face appears 
 B9      C#m9          B9    Bm9                     Fdim 
But it's just a crazy game; when it ends, it ends in tears 
 A7M             D6                                 A7M 
Darling, have a heart  don't let  one mistake keep us apart 
A9      D7M      Fdim                  F#m7          Em7 
I'm not meant to live alone; turn this house into a home 
A7/9-    D7M                         Bm7 
When I climb the stair and turn the key 
    D7M         D6    Bm  Bm7  Bm5-/7  E7 A7M 
Oh, please be there, still in  love  with me
