Dm                     C
    Don't get so dis -     tressed
        G                        F
If the     good life won't ar -     
rive
Dm                      C
    You've been seeing     S.O.S.
           F                 
When it's     just your clock 
          G

Dm - C - G - A7

     Dm                       C
And     why are you so pos -     
sessed
        G                        F
By the     thought that she got     
free
     Dm                       C
And     why are you figuring     
who's the best
                F                  
When just your    luck ran out and 
 G
    she chose me


Chorus:
A7
    We do not lie side by side
     Gmaj7
and         mock the thought of you
     A
And     I don't take her hand and 
ask
    Gmaj7
Is         this what he used to do
      A
'Cos     I just want to free her 
from
      G
Your     jails of jealous dreams
         Dm7 /
'Cos at        least
   Dm7/C /                  Gi /
a          house when it's       
empty
F /        Dm         C - G -
    Stays      clean
F          Dm            C

G - A7



Dm                    C
    And I won't pre -     tend
      G                F
That     I was simply     swayed
          Dm
It was a      two way thing
       C
Not a     three day fling
Continúa después del anuncio
    F                     G
No      secrets kept, no     truth 
betrayed

     Dm                         C
And      here's the house that     
held
     G                      F
The     nightmare that went     on
     Dm                      
And      you're sitting there 
                 C
wishing you'd      never been born
           F                  G
With that     self-inflicted     
crown of thorns


Chorus:
A7
    We do not lie side by side
     Gmaj7
and         mock the thought of you
     A
And     I don't take her hand and 
ask
    Gmaj7
Is         this what he used to do
      A
'Cos     I just want to free her 
from

Your     jails of jealous dreams
         Dm7 /
'Cos at        least
   Dm7/C /                  Gi /
a          house when it's       
empty
F /        Dm
    Stays      clean


Break:
     F     C               G
And     I     won't pre -     tend
              F
That I'm the     saviour of the
C                G
   innocent and     bad
             F                C
But put two     withered old     
blooms
      G
in a     couple of rooms
                  F
And they'll be -     have like
C
   lunatics
     G                        Dm
and     crave what makes them     
sad

    Dm                      C
So      here's a card that     says
       G                           
Happy     twenty-second birthday 
     F
and I     wish you were dead
     Dm                      C
And     here's a house that     held
   F                         G
a     bevy of devils and an     
angel as well

Dm                       C
      And you want what    I've got
      G                   F
When     all I've got is     guilt
       Dm                          
And a      room that won't stay 
   C
sti-      ll
                              F
Filled with pockets full of     
crumpled up money and
  G
a     mantelpiece littered with 
bills


Outro:

empty
         Dm7 /
Yeah at        least
   Dm7/C /                   Gi /
a           house when it's        
empty
         Dm7 /
Yeah at        least
   Dm7/C /                   Gi /
a           house when it's
