Song: When Your House Is Not Home Tab
This is the work of Tim Ausburn. List with Jimmy Dickens songs.
Written by Roger Miller, this version off Jimmy Dickens record.
THAT'S HOW IT IS WHEN YOUR HOUSE IS NOT A HOME
Key D
(D) I WALK UP TO MY DOOR AND (A7) HATE TO TURN THE (D) KEY,
EMPTINESS IS ALL THAT (A7) WAITS INSIDE FOR (D) ME, (D7)
THAT'S HOW IT (G) IS WHEN THE ONE YOU LOVE IS (D) GONE,
THAT'S HOW IT IS WHEN YOUR (G) HOUSE IS NOT A (D) HOME.
I LOOK AROUND SEE THINGS MARKED HIS AND HERS,
LITTLE THINGS LIKE THIS JUST MAKE THINGS THAT MUCH WORSE,
THAT'S HOW IT IS WHEN YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE ALONE,
THAT'S HOW IT IS WHEN YOUR HOUSE IS NOT A HOME.
IS THERE A WAY OUT FOR A SOUL AS TORN AS MINE,
EACH DAY I LIVE I'M LIKE A PRISONER PASSING TIME,
THAT'S HOW IT IS ASK ANY MAN WHO LIVES ALONE,
THAT'S HOW IT IS WHEN YOUR HOUSE IS NOT A HOME.
