Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Mmm[G][D][G][D][G][D][G]
[A][D][G][D][G][A][D]
One less bell to an[A]swer[Bm]
[F#m]One less eg[Bm]g to fry
[G]One less man[F#sus4] to
pick [F#]up af[Bm]ter

[Verse 2]
I should [Em]be ha[E]ppy
But [Em]all [F#m]I do i[G]s cr[Asus4]y, cry[D]
No more [A]laughter
Oh I should [Bm]be h[F#]appy
[F#m](oh why did he[Bm] go?)
I [D]only know that

[Verse 3]
[G]since he left
My [F#sus4]life's so emp[F#]ty
[Eb]Though I try to forget
It just [Gm]can 't be done

[Verse 4]
Each time the doorbell [Fm]rings
I [Gsus4]still run

[Verse 5]
I [Gsus4]don't kno[G]w how[C] in [Em]the world
To [F]stop [C]thinking of him
[F](I should be happy)
'Cause [C]I still love him [Bm]so[E]
I end each [Em]day the way I star
[A]ted (start and [Em]end each day crying)
Cry[A]ing my heart [D]out

[Verse 6]
[D]One less bell to answer
[Bm]One less egg to fry
[G]One less man (on[F#m]e less man)
To pick up [Bm]af ter
[Em]No m[D]ore [A]laug[Asus4]hter,[Am]
no more laught-
[Cdim]

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Since [F#m]he went awa[G]y[Asus4]
(since he [Bm]went away)
Since [A]he went away
[Am]Mmm[C]

[Interlude 1]
[D][C][F][E]

[Verse 8]
A chair is still [F#m]a chair
[A]Even when there's no one sittin[E]g there
But a [A]chair is not a house
And a house [C#m]is not a hom[Bm]e
When [A]there's no one there
To hold [F#m]you tight and no one there

[Verse 9]
[A]You [B]can [A]kiss [Bsus4]goodnight[A][E]
A room is still [F#m]a room
Even [A]when there's nothing
[E]there but [Bm]gloom[C#]
But [A]a room is not a house
And a [C#m]house is not a [E]home
When [A]the two of us are far [F#m]apart
And one [Bsus4]of us has a broken hea[E]rt
[C#m]

[Verse 10]
[B]Now an [A]d then I call your name
An[E]d suddenly [D]your face [Gm]ap pears
[F#]But it's just [Bbm]a craz[B]y game[Bb]
[Bdim]And when i[Bb]t ends,[Bbm]
[A]it [F#m]ends in tears

[Verse 11]
[B]
So [F]darling, [Gm]have a heart
Don't let one mistake
[F]keep us [Fsus4]apart
[Bb]Oh, [D]I'm not [Bb]meant to live alone
[A]Turn thi[Dm]s house into a h[Cm]ome
[F]When [Bb]I climb the stairs
and [Gm]turn the key
Oh please,
be [Bb]there [Gm]still in [Bb]love with me

[Verse 12]
[F]One less bell to answer
[C]Each time the door[Gm]bell [Bb]rings I s[C]till
[Dm]run [F](one less egg [D]to fry)
I'm lucky I got [G]one less man
[D](one less man)
To pick up after
[G]No more laughter (no more
[F#dim]laughter)
No [Am]more laugh-
[A][B]

[Verse 13]
[Em]Sinc[F#m]e he went away[G][Asus4]
[Bm](since he went away)
Since [A]he [C]went away
[Em]All [F#m]I do is [G]cry[D][Asus4][D]
