A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME
W: Hal David
M: Burt Bacharach
Luther Vandross, Dionne Warwick
Key: Bb

-1 -2   -1  -2  -3   1
A chair is still a chair
1 -1* -1*    3     3  -3* -5   -3   -3
E-ven when there's no one sit-ting there
-5 -6  -6   -5 -5* -6 -5*
But a chair is not a house
-5 -5  -6   -5 -5* -6 -5*
And a house is not a home
 -5    -6    -5 -3*  -3*
When there's no one there 
-3* -5  -5*  -5
to hold you tight,
 5  -5 -3*  -3*  -5* -5   -3*  3    -2
And no one there you can kiss good night.

A room is still a room
Even when there's nothing there but gloom;
But a room is not a house,
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart.

Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends it ends in tears.

Darling, have a heart,
Don't let one mistake keep us apart.
I'm not meant to live alone. turn this house into a home.
When I climb the stair and turn the key,
Oh, please be there still in love with me.
