  			C                        Bm6	     Dm6  C  Am/F	 
There's a house with no door and I'm living there 
    G6                         Bb/F                  F6 
At nights it gets  cold and the days are hard to bear inside 
C                        Bm6	     Dm6  C  Am/F 
There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in 
    G6                         Bb/F                  F6 
Falling through my head as I try to think out time 
C                      Bm6              Am     
I don't know you, you say you know me, that may be so 
	G6                  F6 
There's so much that I am unsure of .. 
C                      Bm6              Am     
You call my name, but it sounds unreal, I forget how I feel 
	G6                  F6     Dsus 
My body's rejecting the cure 


There's a house with no bell, but then nobody calls; 
I sometimes find it hard to tell if any are alive at all outside 
There's a house with no sound; yes, it's quiet there .. 
There's not much point in words if there's no-one to share in time 
I've learned my lines, I know them so well, I am ready to tell 
Whoever will finally come in 
Of the line in my mind that's cold in the night, it doesn't seem right 
When there's that little dark figure running ...somebody help me 

There's a house with no door and there's no living there: 
One day it became a wall ... well I didn't really care at the time 
There's a house with no light, all the windows are sealed 
Overtaxed and strained 
Now nothing is revealed but time 
I don't know you, you say you know me, that may be so 
There's so much that I am unsure of .. 
You call my name, but it sounds unreal, I forget how I feel 
My body's rejecting the cure .... 
Won't somebody help me ......?
