^{E C#m F#m B7 E A E B7}
There hasn't ^E been one bit of ^E7 laughter in this ^A house in so
^C long,
Just the ^E howling of the ^C#m wind asking ^F#m why. ^B7
And I ^E know this house ain't ^E7 growing, but it seems ^A bigger since
you're ^C gone.
And this ^E loneliness ^C#m is ^F#m eating ^B7 me ^E alive. ^{A E B7}
If there's ^E any forgiveness ^E7 in you wrap it ^A up and come on
^C home.
Hey I ^E may not change ^C#m completely, oh but I'll ^F#m try. ^B7
And ^E honey you'll have to ^E7 hurry or there'll be no ^A reason to
come ^C home.
Cause this ^E loneliness ^C#m is ^F#m eating ^B7 me ^E alive. ^{A E}
The bigger the ^B7 house, the harder the ^E tear falls,
I found it ^F# out since you're ^B7 goodbye.
And ^E honey you'll have to ^E7 hurry or there'll be no ^A reason to
come ^C home.
Cause this ^E loneliness ^C#m is ^F#m eating ^B7 me ^E alive. ^{E D C#m}
Yea, this ^F#m loneliness is ^B7 eating me ^E alive. ^{A E}
