Rarely performed gem written by Arthur Alexander... nice laid back feel for this one! Verse 1 =======
   D         G
My house is a lonely house

       D         G
But it once was a happy house

        D        /Db   /B   G        A   A7
And the two of us were happy as I re-call
Refrain 1 =========
            D            Bm
But now the rain falls a-round it

    D              Bm
And loneliness sur-rounds it

    G           A            D    A
And I am in the middle of it all
Verse 2 =======
   D               G
My friends look at me and say

  D                     G
I wonder what made that boy that way

    D  /Db        /B  G         A   A7
The boy   doesn't even smile at all
Refrain 2 =========
      D           Bm
But I wonder what they would say

   D                     Bm
If their world just came down one day

    G                A            D   D7
And they were in the middle of it all
Bridge ======
G                                      D
  I gave that girl all the love that I had
Had to give
        G
And the love that I gave her

     D                A    A7
Was real and real and real
Verse 3 =======
      D
Now I ache yeah 

           G
With heart-breaking pain

        D                G
And the hurt that I just cant explain

       D         /Db   /B  G            A   A7
Yes it looks like   my life is about to fall
Refrain 3 / end ===============
      D             Bm    
But I feel a shadow round me 

    D           Bm
But sadness has found me

    G             A            D
And me I'm in the middle of it all

    G                         D
I'm sitting right here in the middle
