Empty Chairs

this is mostly based on the tablature at don_mclean/Empty_chairs_tab . htm - i’m extrapolating chords from the notes played there , and simplifying a bit when it seems appropriate . you could probably get away with simplifying more , though in the original the guitar is of course very much picking out a full melody . G Asus2 Am i feel the trembling tingle of a sleepless night C D7 G creep through my fingers and the moon is bright G Gmaj7 G6 Asus2 Am beams of blue come flickering through my window pane C D7 G like gypsy moths that dance around a candle flame G Asus2 Am and i wonder if you know Cadd9 D7 G that i never understood Em Am7 that although you said you’d go C D7 G Gmaj7 G6 Am7 Asus4 until you did i never thought you would G Asus2 Am moonlight used to bathe the contours of your face C D7 G while chestnut hair fell all around the pillow case G Gmaj7 G6 Am Asus2 Am and the fragrance of your flowers rest beneath my head C D7 G a sympathy bouquet left with the love that’s dead G Asus2 Am and i wonder if you know Cadd9 D7 G that i never understood Em Am7 that although you said you’d go C D7 G Gmaj7 G6 until you did i never thought you would Asus4 Em G Am7 never thought the words you said were true D6 G D6 C Am7 Am C never thought you said just what you meant Dsus2 D G Gmaj7 G6 Am7 never knew how much i needed you D C D6 Am D6 never thought you’d leave , until you went G Asus2 Am morning comes and morning goes with no regret C D7 G and evening brings the memories i can’t forget G Gmaj7 G6 Am Asus2 empty rooms that echo as i climb the stairs C D7 G and empty clothes that drape and fall on empty chairs G Asus2 Am and i wonder if you know Cadd9 D7 G that i never understood Em Am7 that although you said you’d go C D7 G Gmaj7 G6 until you did i never thought you would Am7 Asus4 D7 E7 C D C D C D G
