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.
