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
