INTRO:   Play D chord   then
 
 High E string ------5h7p5-------7\5---

Then back to D chord.

VERSE:
  D
Nights by the fire when she was there

Now all I see is an empty chair
       Em7
She's gone 
A                 D
 And this man is dying


VERSE:
  D
There was a time when I'd laugh and sing

All I have left is a dusty ring
       Em7
She's gone, 
A                       D
 There's no purpose in trying


CHORUS:
Em7               A            D
   The door stays open in the day
Em7                   A
   The lock's still broken
         D     A      Bm        A
And the way I feel without her here
   Em7
Is very strange 
A7           D
 And won't change


VERSE:
 D
Living as one when a half is gone
                                         Em7
Fallin' apart when you can't be strong alone
A7                  D
  When time has no meaning


VERSE:
  D
Passin' the night in the same routine

Playin' the part in a broken dream
       Em7
She's gone, 
A7                       D    
  There's no reason for being


CHORUS:
Em7              A            D
  The door stays open in the day
Em7                  A
   The lock's still broken
         D     A      Bm        A
And the way I feel without her here
    Em7
Is very strange 
A7            D
  And won't change


OUTRO:
  D
Nights by the fire when she was there

Now all I see is an empty chair
       Em7
She's gone 
A                D
 And this man is dying
       Em7
She's gone, 
 A7                    D      G  A  D
There's no purpose in trying
