When Your House Is Not A Home
recorded by Jean Shepard

G D7 G
I walk up to my door and hate to turn the key
D7 G
Emptiness is all that's left inside for me
C G
That's how it is when the one you love is gone
C G
That's how it is when your house is not a home
D7 G
I look around and see things marked with his and hers
D7 G
Things like these just seem to make things that much worse
C G
That's how it is since I live my life alone
C G
That's how it is since my house is not a home
D7 G
Is there a way out for a soul so torn as mine
D7 G
Each day I'm living like a prisoner passing time
C G
That's how it is ask anyone who lives alone
C G
That's how it is when your house is not a home
