[Verse 1]
Am           E        E7
This empty kitchen's where
     Am             E    E7
I'd while away the hours
Am               E          E7
   Just next to my old chair
C                       E  E7
   You'd usually have some flowers
Dm7                E7
   The shelves of books
Am  Am/G      Am/F#                      Dm7
   Even the picture hooks. Everything is gone
E7                Asus2    Asus2
But my heart is hanging on

[Verse 2]
Am              E    E7
  If this old neighbourhood
Am           E    E7
  Survived us both alright
Am                 E    E7
  Don't know that it withstood
C                       E    E7
  All the things that took our light
Dm7            E7
  You on the stair
Am  Am/G         Am/F#                      Dm7
      I can see you there.   Everything is gone
E7                Asus2         Asus2
But my heart is hanging on

[Bridge]
Fmaj7               Cmaj7
   Once there was a little girl
Fmaj7                  Cmaj7
   Used to wonder what she would be
Fmaj7                Cmaj7
   Went out into the big wide world
Cmaj7                Fmaj7
   Now she's just a memory
Fmaj7                  Cmaj7
   There used to be a little school here
Fmaj7                  Cmaj7
   Where I learned to write my name
Fmaj7                  Cmaj7
   But time has been a little cruel here
Cmaj7    Fmaj7
   Time has no shame

[Chorus]
Dm7              G     Cmaj7              Fmaj7   Fmaj7
   It's just a place,   where we used to live
Dm7              G     Cmaj7              Fmaj7   Fmaj7
   It's just a place,   where we used to live

[Verse 3]
Am         E      E7
  Now in another town
     Am           E   E7
You lead another life
Am            E          E7
  And now upstairs and down
C                 E    E7
  You're someone else's wife
Dm7             E7
  Here in the dust
Am   Am/G         Am/F#                      Dm7
    There's not a trace of us. Everything is gone
E7                 Asus2           Asus2
  But my heart is hanging on


[Chorus]
Dm7              G     Cmaj7              Fmaj7   Fmaj7
   It's just a place,   where we used to live
Dm7              G     Cmaj7              Fmaj7   Fmaj7
   It's just a place,   where we used to live
Dm7              G     Cmaj7              Fmaj7   Fmaj7
   It's just a place,   where we used to live
Dm7              G     Cmaj7              Fmaj7   Fmaj7
   It's just a place,   where we used to live
