(Original Key: Bbm)


Chorus 1:

Am                F
 I see a house, a house of stone,
 (Seven...        rooms),
                               Em7
A lonely house 'cos now you've gone.
(Filled...                with gloom).

            Gm
      Seven rooms,
(Just seven rooms, that's all it is,
               Ebmaj7
Seven rooms of gloom.
         ...Of gloom).

             Abmaj7    Db            F
 I live with emptiness, without your tenderness.
(Filled with emptiness).

Verse 1:

             Dm                            Gm          Dm
You took the dream I had for us; turned my dreams into dust.
            Dm                              Gm              Dm
I watch the phone; never rings, I watch the door that never rings.
          Dm                           Gm            Dm
Bring you back into my life; turn this darkness into light.
          Dm                            Gm           Dm
I'm all a-lone in this house, turn this house into a home.

Bridge 1:

Bb6          Bb       F          A7
 I need your touch to comfort me,
Bb6                 Bb         F            A7
 The tender, tender arms, that once held me.

Chorus 2:

             Am                 F
Without your love, your love in-side,
            (Seven...           rooms),
                                      Em7
This house is just a place to run and hide.
(Filled...                       with gloom).

            Gm
      Seven rooms,
(Just seven rooms, that's all it is,
               Ebmaj7
Seven rooms of gloom.
         ...Of gloom).

          Abmaj7    Db            F
 Rooms of emptiness, without your tenderness.
(Rooms of emptiness).

Verse 2:

              Dm                                 Gm                 Dm
Don't make me live from day to day, watching the clock that ticks a-way.
        Dm                        Gm               Dm
Another day, another way, another reason for me to stay.
           Dm                             Gm                 Dm
I need you here, here with me, I need you darling, desperate-ly.
    Dm                            Gm                 Dm
I'm all alone, all alone, in this house that's not a home.

Bridge 2:

Bb6          Bb      F              A7
 I miss your love, I once had known.
Bb6          Bb                F              A7
 I miss your kiss, that was my very, very own.

Chorus 3:

Am                  F
 Empty silence, sur-rounding me,
(Seven...           rooms),
                            Em7
Lonely walls, they stare at me.
(Filled...             with gloom).

             Abmaj7    Db            F
 I live with emptiness, without your tenderness.
(Filled with emptiness).

Verse 3:

        Dm                                        Gm                   Dm
All the windows are painted black, and wait right here, until you come back.
          Dm                           Gm            Dm
I'll keep waiting, waiting, until your face, again I see.

Outro:

Dm, Gm  Dm

(Repeat to Fade)
