A house with everything but love

- A - D D

1. You gave your happiness for sorrow,

A

your tears fall like the rain from above,

I see where you live from my window,

A7 D

a house with everything but love.

D

2. My house is smaller than your own, dear,

A

the color may not be as bright,

I may get just a little lonely,

A7 D

but my conscience don't bother me at night. Well ...

G

The roses bloom around your window

D D - D7

the sun keeps shinin' every day.

G

It's cold and dark inside your prison,

D A

to live again there's just one way.

D

3. You gave your happiness for sorrow

A

your tears fall like the rain from above,

I see where you live from my window,

A7 D

a house with everything but love.

+ A - D + CHORUS + repeat verse 3
