Empty chords by Lianne La Havas

Chords with lyrics

Difficulty: Novice

This is from a live performance.
The studio version is up a tone, so put a capo on the 2nd fret.

Most of the chords sound fine played open, though they're often barred in that
recording. Particularly during the -Just leave town- part,

C7: X 3 2 3 1 0 / X 3 5 3 5 3
Em: 0 2 2 0 0 0 / X 7 9 9 8 7
Dm7: X X 0 2 1 1 / X 5 7 5 6 5
Am7: X 0 2 0 1 0 / 5 7 5 5 5 5

I knew you were empty,
I knew you were lost yet still,
I'm alone,
But oh how I've grown

Thought that he'd left me,
Thought that he'd burned out bright,
And I'm alone,
But somehow I'm alright

It seemed so easy,
Just to walk, just to run,
But if you leave me,
I can re-aquaint myself, with my true loved one

Just leave town
I can sleep when you're not around
Thought it was myself that I'd found
I said just leave town
I can sleep when you're not around
I gotta take another call right now
