A chair is still a chair, even when there's no one sitting there;  
  
A9     Dm7           Fdim         F#m7           Em7  
But a chair is not a house, and a house is not a home  
  
A7/9-         Dm7                      Bm7  
When there's no one there to hold you tight,  
  
   Dm7       D6  Bm7    Bm7/5-       Am7  
And no one there you can kiss good night.  
  
  
   Am7             D6                              Am7  
A room is still a room, even when there's nothing there but gloom;  
  
A9     Dm7          Fdim         F#m7           Em7  
But a room is not a house, and a house is not a home  
  
A7/9-     Dm7                Bm7  
When the two of us are far apart,  
  
    Dm7    D6 Bm7   Bm7/5-   E7  Am7  
And one of us has a  brok - en heart.  
  
  
Bridge:  
  
D       
Now and then I call your name,   
  
     A                   Gdim  
And suddenly your face appears;  
  
 B9      C#m9          B9    Bm9                     Fdim  
But it's just a crazy game; when it ends, it ends in tears.  
  
  
  
 Am7             D6                                 Am7  
Darling, have a heart ? don't let  one mistake keep us apart.  
  
A9      Dm7      Fdim                  F#m7          Em7  
I'm not meant to live alone; turn this house into a home.  
  
A7/9-    Dm7                         Bm7  
When I climb the stair and turn the key,  
  
    Dm7         D6    Bm  Bm7  Bm7/5-  E7 Am7  
Oh, please be there, still in  love  with me.
