Lyrics
Artist: Tom Waits
There's a [C]house on my block that's [G]abandoned and cold
F[C]olks moved out of it a l[F]ong time ago
And they t[C]ook all their things, and they n[G]ever came back
Lo[C]oks like its haunted, with the wi[F]ndows all cracked
And e[C]veryone calls it the [G]house
The house where nobody l[F]ives [C]

[CHORUS]
On[F]ce it held laughter, once it held dreams
Did they t[C]hrow it away, do they know what it means
Di[F]d someone's heart break,
Or [D7]did someone do somebody w[G]rong [G7]

Well the paint was all cracked, it was peeled off the wood
Papers were stacked on the porch where I stood
And the weeds had grown up just as high as the door
There were birds in the chimney and an old chest of drawers
Looks like no-one will ever come back to
The house where nobody lives

[CHORUS]

So if you find someone, someone to have, someone to hold
Don't trade it for silver, don't trade it for gold
`Cos I have all of life's treasures, and they're fine and they're good
They remind me that houses are just made of wood
What makes a house grand oh it aint the roof or the doors
If there's love in a house, it's a palace for sure
Without love it aint nothin' but a house

A house where nobody lives
Without love it aint nothin' but a house
A house where nobody lives
