A House Is Not a Home

Am7              D6              
A chair is still a chair, even 
               Am7
when there's no one sitting there;

A9     Dm7           Fdim        
But a chair is not a house, and a
 F#m7           Em7
 house is not a home

A7/9-         Dm7                
When there's no one there to hold
      Bm7
 you tight,

   Dm7       D6  Bm7    Bm7/5-  
And no one there you can kiss 
     Am7
good night.


   Am7             D6             
A room is still a room, even when 
                 Am7
there's nothing there but gloom;

A9     Dm7          Fdim         
But a room is not a house, and a 
F#m7           Em7
house is not a home

Continues after the ad
A7/9-     Dm7                Bm7
When the two of us are far apart,

    Dm7    D6 Bm7   Bm7/5-  
And one of us has a  brok - en 
 E7  Am7
heart.


Bridge:

D
Now and then I call your name,

     A                   Gdim
And suddenly your face appears;

 B9      C#m9          B9    Bm9
But it's just a crazy game; when
                     Fdim
 it ends, it ends in tears.



 Am7             D6               
Darling, have a heart ? don't let 
                  Am7
 one mistake keep us apart.

A9      Dm7      Fdim           
I'm not meant to live alone; 
       F#m7          Em7
turn this house into a home.

A7/9-    Dm7                     
When I climb the stair and turn 
    Bm7
the key,

    Dm7         D6    Bm  Bm7  
Oh, please be there, still in  
Bm7/5-  E7 Am7
love  with me.
