G#/C               C#
The click of the front door
G#/C                  C#
Your clothes left on the floor
G#/C
Like wheels
       C#
Still turning
G#/C                C#
Where you left them on the back lawn

Your voices recede and
Your fingers slip from my hand
White skies and silence
A lifeless wind burns through the Downland

          G#/C                   C#
And it's cold, cold, cold, cold, cold
               G#/C                     C#
And you're not home, home, home, home, home
           G#/C
I sit and stayed
            C#
I sit and stayed
          G#/C                  C#
Until my phone, phone, phone, phone

Chorus:
              G#/C             C#
I love that silver grey first morning light
            G#/C             C#
I see that fearless love in your blue eyes
             G#/C             C#
Think I can picture some new shape of life
                   G#/C
And now you're not home
             C#
You're not home
            G#/C
You're not home
     C#
Not home

And it's cold, cold, cold, cold, cold
When you're not home, home, home, home, home
I sit and stare, I sit and stare
Into my phone, phone, phone, phone, phone

Chorus:
I love that silver-grey first morning light
I see that fearless love in your blue eyes
Think I can picture some new shape of life
But now you're not home
No, you're not home

G#                            A#m
I love that silver grey first morning light
            G#/C                  A#m
I see that fearless love in your blue eyes
            G#/C              C#      A#m
Think I can picture some new shape of life
                    G#
And now you're not home
You're not home
You're not home
Not home
