INTRO
|B A |E | |
|F#m |
Can't stand the sight of myself
| |E Esus4 |E |
Lying in bed all day with the curtains drawn
|F#m |
Staring at the clock on the window ledge
| |E Esus4 |E
The angry words you said come back so strong
|G#m |
Sometimes love quits
|A G#m |
Oh when the pieces don't fit
|F#m |E
And suddenly all your world falls to the floor
|G#m
And all your wild days
|A |
Oh fall away
|F#m G#m |A |B
Can't see much point in them anymore
CHORUS
|E |B
In this house of dreams
C7 |C#m |A
I let you walk like a ghost unseen
G#m |F#m |
Girl on the day you left
|B A |E Esus4 | E |
Out walked my everything
|F#m
Must have thought you'd always be there
| |E Esus4 | E |
I never even noticed when the changes came one day
|F#m
Seems one minute you were standing close
| |E Esus4 | E
I turned around again and girl you were far away
|G#m
And every plan we made
|A G#m
Oh I just let them fade
|F#m |
And pile up on the floor beside the bed
|E |G#m
Now you're gone away
|A |G#m
Oh but your memory stays
| F#m G#m |A
I sit here thinking of the things I never said
CHORUS
B |E |B
In this house of dreams
C7 |C#m |A
I let you walk like a ghost unseen
G#m |F#m
Girl on the day you left
|B A |E Esus4 | E
Out walked my everything
[Solo]
|F#m | |E Esus4 |E |
|F#m | |E Esus4 |E
|G#m |
Sometimes love quits
|A G#m |
Oh when the pieces don't fit
| F#m |E
And suddenly all your world falls to the floor
|G#m
Now you're gone away
|A
Oh but your memory stays
|F#m G#m |A Bsus4 B
I hear your voice behind every single door
CHORUS
|E |B
In this house of dreams
C7 |C#m |A
I let you walk like a ghost unseen
G#m |F#m |
Girl on the day you left
|B A |E |E7 |A | Am |E |
Out walked my everything
