[Intro]
Am | E E7 |
Am | E E7 |
[Verse 1]
Am E E7 This empty kitchen's where Am E E7 I'd while away the hours Am E E7 Just next to my old chair C E E7 You'd usually have some flowers Dm7 E7 The shelves of books Am Am/G Am/F# Dm7 Even the picture hooks. Everything is gone E7 Asus2 Asus2 But my heart is hanging on
[Verse 2]
Am E E7 If this old neighbourhood Am E E7 Survived us both alright Am E E7 Don't know that it withstood C E E7 All the things that took our light Dm7 E7 You on the stair Am Am/G Am/F# Dm7 I can see you there. Everything is gone E7 Asus2 Asus2 But my heart is hanging on
[Bridge]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Once there was a little girl Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Used to wonder what she would be Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Went out into the big wide world Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Now she's just a memory Fmaj7 Cmaj7 There used to be a little school here Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Where I learned to write my name Fmaj7 Cmaj7 But time has been a little cruel here Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Time has no shame
[Chorus]
Dm7 G Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 It's just a place, where we used to live Dm7 G Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 It's just a place, where we used to live
[Verse 3]
Am E E7 Now in another town Am E E7 You lead another life Am E E7 And now upstairs and down C E E7 You're someone else's wife Dm7 E7 Here in the dust Am Am/G Am/F# Dm7 There's not a trace of us. Everything is gone E7 Asus2 Asus2 But my heart is hanging on
[Chorus]
Dm7 G Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 It's just a place, where we used to live Dm7 G Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 It's just a place, where we used to live Dm7 G Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 It's just a place, where we used to live Dm7 G Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 It's just a place, where we used to live
[Outro]
| Dm7 | G | Cmaj7 | Fmaj7 | Fmaj7 | (Repeat to fade)
