These rooms play tricks upon you
D5 D5 G5
Remember when they were always filled with laughter?
C5 Eb5
But now they're quite deserted
D5 D5 G5
They seem to just echo voices raised in anger
Eb5
Maybe you will see my face
C5 F5 F5
Reflected there on the pane
F5 E5 Eb5
In the window of our poor
C5
Forlorn and broken home
Eb5 F5 Bb5
Still this house is empty now
Eb5
There's nothing I can do
F5 Bb5 D5
To make you want to stay
( B5 )
So tell me how
G5
Am I supposed to live without you?
These walls were lined with pictures
Remember the glass we charged in celebration?
But now I fill my life up
With all that I can to deaden this sensation
Do you recognize the face
Fixed in that fine silver frame
Were you really so unhappy then?
You never said
So this house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
To make you want to stay
So tell me how
Am I supposed to live without you?
C5 Eb5 Bb5
Oh, if I could just become forgetful
D5 G5
When night seems endless
G5 Em7(b5)
Does the extinguished candle care
G5
About the darkness?
It's funny how my mem'ry
Will bring you so close then make you disappear
Meanwhile all our friends must choose
Who they will favour, who they will lose
Hang the garland high or close the door
And throw away the key
This house is empty now
There's no one living here
You have to care about
This house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
To make you want to stay
So tell me how
Am I supposed to live without you?
This house is empty now
There's no one living here
You have to care about
This house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
To make you want to stay
So tell me how
Am I supposed to live without you?
