intro: played 3x, first with guitar only, then continued on the first 2 verse lines Em F ----------------------------------------1-----1------- ------------------------------------------1-----1----- --------------------------------------2-----2-----2--- -2-------------1----------0--------------------------- -2-------------2----------2--------------------------- -0-------------x----------x--------------------------- We used to be forever partners we swore we'd never separate C D oh, I didn't see it changing Em D Now a house is not a home C D I'm out in the street tonight Em D a house is not a home C D I'm without a dream tonight We used to be sister and brother and then came lovers and then came the pain oh I, I tried to change it But a house is not a home I'm out in the street tonight a house is not a home I'm without a dream tonight instrumental = verse But a house is not a home I'm out in the street tonight I'm no longer home I'm without a dream tonight Love and tears bound us together I fought the men to protect her oh, I couldn't understand it But a house is not a home I'm without a dream tonight a house is not a home I'm without her heat tonight Now, I unravel onto the floor hearts are spilled onto the floor oh I, wish I could change it But a house is not a home I'm the one degraded I'm no longer home all of life has faded
instrumental = verse
But a house is not a home
I'm out in the street tonight
I'm no longer home
I'm without a dream tonight
end: intro/verse riff, but 1x only, then Em
