[Intro] F C E7/G# Am Dm C/G G [Verse 1]
   Ebdim7
He died when the house was empty

A
  When the maid had gone

Bm                  E/G#
   He put a pen to paper

F#
   For one final song

Bm
   He wrote, oh babe,

Dm                Dm/B
   It's the only way

A              A/G#              F#m7  Amaj7
  I know it's wrong but I can't stand

Ebdim7
  To go on living

A
  To go on living

Bm       E/G#      D/A  A
  Living life this way

Ebdim7
  And I don't know what the time is

A
  Or what the next line is

Bm               E/G#           F#   F#7
  Or how you're gonna take the news

      Bm                    Dm
But if I had my life again, ohh

A             A/G#    F#m7  E
  I wouldn't change a thing

Ebdim7
  I'd let nobody

A
  I'd let nobody

Bm       E/G#      D/A  A
  Stand inside my shoes
[Chorus]
 C   Em7
Ohhh

                    Am        Abaug
Something's got to hold of me

Dm7                             G
  This home is not the home it used to be

C                     Gm6
  I've gathered dust like the dying flowers

 F                          Fm
Ohh, and I've drunk myself sober

 C  F       G         F    C
Ohh, after hours and hours

Ohhh

                    Am        Abaug
Something's got to hold of me

Dm7                             G
  This home is not the home it used to be

C                     Gm6
  I've gathered dust like the dying flowers

 F                          Fm
Ohh, and I've drunk myself sober

 C  F       G         F    Fm C
Ohh, after hours and hours
[Outro]
F        G         F     C
  After hours and hours, oh
