Empty Corridors chords by Ben Howard

Verse 1:

Em             Em/A
She's got a little house in town


        G
I sometimes go around, there


  G/F#
To see her


  Em        Em/A
And she let me deep inside

      G
I sing her love songs


      G/F#
But she'll turn a blind eye


   Em            Em/A
Cause she ain't the sentimental type


     G            G/F#
I keep my heart in my pocket and I hold


 G/F#*
I hold it tight


Chorus:

Em              G
I know that she don't mind if I


          Em
Go away and I don't call


               C
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all


Em              G
I know that she don't mind if I


          Em
Go away and I don't call


               C           Em
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all


      C
Through it all


      Em  C
Through it all


Verse 2:

Em                 G
Her skin is softer than the bluest eyes


     C
With the warmth that I need


      D
Gives me a place


         Em                     G
To hide from the streetlights burning through the bedroom window


     C         D*            D
In the shadows yeah there's loneliness we cling to


Em           G
When the morning comes


            C
We'll go, we'll go our separate ways


     D               Em
Ain't no magic here, ain't no reason to stay



Chorus:

Em              G
I know that she don't mind if I


          Em
Go away and I don't call


               C
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all


Em              G
I know that she don't mind if I


          Em
Go away and I don't call


               C           Em
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all


      C
Through it all


      Em  C
Through it all


Bridge:

Em     C
And we fall through empty corridors


G       D
And we talk in useless metaphors


Em      C
Yeah we fall through empty corridors


G       D
And we talk in useless metaphors


Em     C
And we fall through empty corridors


G       D
And we talk in useless metaphors


Ending:

         Em
Only 'cause we're lonely


         G
Only 'cause we're lonely


         Em
Only 'cause we're lonely


         C
Only 'cause we're lonely


   Em
Only lonely


   C
Only lonely


         Em
Only 'cause we're lonely


D      C
No, no, no, no


         Em
Only 'cause we're lonely


D   C
Lonely here oh, my, my, my


Em
Lonely


D    C
Lonely here



End on Em
