 C     C/B   C7            F
Dear heart wish you were here 

   C     Am7  Dm7    G7
To warm this night;

 G+ C    C/B     C7          F
My dear heart, seems like a year 

        C         G          F     Fm    C
Since you've been out of my sight.

    F    Fm       C    C/B  Am
A single room, a table for one --

        F       Cdim      Dm7      G7
It's a lonesome town all right.

 G+  C   C/B   C7        F
But soon I'll kiss you hello 

   C   Am7    Dm7  G7
At our front door;

 G+  C    C/B    C7            F
And dear heart I want you to know,

       C    Am7  Dm7  G7         F   Dm7-5   C
I'll leave your arms     never more.
