Key: E major

Verse 1
D D 
 
E E 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
My front door is still
D D 
 
standing open
G G 
 
When my baby just walked
out to say goodbye
D D 
 
She left me nothing, nothing but sorrow
E E 
 
A A 
 
And a heart sad and sick enough to die
G G 
 
D D 
 
She stopped just long enough,
long enough to tell me
G G 
 
That she wouldn't be coming home
D D 
 
no time soon
And then she walked right out
G G 
 
and left me here to cry the blues
D D 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
In this great big old empty room
When she walked out I turned around
Then right before my eyes
G G 
 
D D 
 
was a picture of her hanging on a wall
G G 
 
Then like a baby, just like a baby
D D 
 
G G 
 
E E 
 
I  sat right down
A A 
 
and started to squawk
D D 
 
Those tears kept fallin', Lord,
the tears kept fallin'
G G 
 
But those teardrops couldn't
ease me and my gloom
D D 
 
Cause although she was gone,
G G 
 
her memories lingered on
D D 
 
in this great big old empty room
G G 
 
This room is lonely,
its walls are grey just
D D 
 
like my heart
Since she's gone, it's empty inside
G G 
 
Since my one and only
packed up and went away
D D 
 
I sit here in this empty room
A A 
 
G G 
 
F#m F#m 
 
and cry, cry, cry
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
I can't stand it, Lord, I  can't stand it
G G 
 
That woman meant the world to me
D D 
 
But she just walked right out and left me
G G 
 
In this great big empty room
D D 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
E E 
 
A A 
 
With nothing but my memories
D D 
 
G G 
 
I'm gonna keep my front
D D 
 
door standin' open
G G 
 
I'm gonna keep it standin'
D D 
 
wide so I can see
G G 
 
Cause in my heart,
D D 
 
in my heart I'm hopin'
E E 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
That someday she'll come back to me
D D 
 
If all these heartaches,
all this sorrow,
G G 
 
all this misery would come to an end
D D 
 
If she'd come walking
through the front door
G G 
 
of this great big empty room
D D 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
And to my empty arms again
A A 
 
D D 
 
Homie, homie, homie
