None of them
EMPTY - Del Amitri
Intro
Dm - C - G - F -
Dm - C - G - A7
Dm C
Don't get so dis - tressed
G F
If the good life won't ar - rive
Dm C
You've been seeing S.O.S.
F G
When it's just your clock reading 5:05
Dm - C - G - A7
Dm C
And why are you so pos - sessed
G F
By the thought that she got free
Dm C
And why are you figuring who's the best
F G
When just your luck ran out and she chose me
Chorus:
A7
We do not lie side by side
Gmaj7
and mock the thought of you
A
And I don't take her hand and ask
Gmaj7
Is this what he used to do
A
'Cos I just want to free her from
G
Your jails of jealous dreams
Dm7 /
'Cos at least
Dm7/C / Gi /
a house when it's empty
F / Dm C - G -
Stays clean
F Dm C G - A7
Sta - ys cle - an
Dm C
And I won't pre - tend
G F
That I was simply swayed
Dm
It was a two way thing
C
Not a three day fling
F G
No secrets kept, no truth betrayed
Dm C
And here's the house that held
G F
The nightmare that went on
Dm C
And you're sitting there wishing you'd never been born
F G
With that self-inflicted crown of thorns
Chorus:
A7
We do not lie side by side
Gmaj7
and mock the thought of you
A
And I don't take her hand and ask
Gmaj7
Is this what he used to do
A
'Cos I just want to free her from
G
Your jails of jealous dreams
Dm7 /
'Cos at least
Dm7/C / Gi /
a house when it's empty
F / Dm
Stays clean
Break:
F C G
And I won't pre - tend
F
That I'm the saviour of the
C G
innocent and bad
F C
But put two withered old blooms
G
in a couple of rooms
F
And they'll be - have like
C
lunatics
G Dm
and crave what makes them sad
C - G - F -
Dm - C - G - A7
Dm - C - G - F -
Dm - C - G - A7
Dm C
So here's a card that says
G F
Happy twenty-second birthday and I wish you were dead
Dm C
And here's a house that held
F G
a bevy of devils and an angel as well
Dm C
And you want what I've got
G F
When all I've got is guilt
Dm C
And a room that won't stay sti- ll
F
Filled with pockets full of crumpled up money and
G
a mantelpiece littered with bills
Outro:
Dm7 /
'Cos at least
Dm7/C / Gi /
a house when it's empty
Dm7 /
Yeah at least
Dm7/C / Gi /
a house when it's empty
Dm7 /
Yeah at least
Dm7/C / Gi /
a house when it's empty
Dm
is clean//
