[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 |
