                  Gm              Dm
Well when you’re with your friends,
            C
But you’re lonely,
Gm            Dm                     C
You smile a smile that’s not your own,
      F       C              F      A#
When comfort comes from a strangers arms,
 C               F
Miles away from home,

And you close your eyes to feel a darkness
You dream of love you have known
But you wake up instead
In a strangers bed
Miles away from home

Chorus:
A#                  C
Though you’re in a house,
                  F
Don’t mean its a home,
                    Dm
Though you’re in a crowd,
                          A#
Doesn’t mean you’re not alone,
                           C
Doesn’t mean you’re not alone,

And though he wraps you in wool
You're still freezing
It's been a while since you've been warm
Cause you're making false starts
With a strangers heart
Miles away from home

Chorus:
And though he's on your skin
Doesn't mean he's in your blood
And though you let him in
Doesn't mean you're making love
Doesn't mean you're making love

                   Gm  Dm  C
Cos you’re not in love
              Gm  Dm C
Youre not in love
              Gm Dm C
Youre not in love
              Gm       Dm   C
Youre not in love, in love

Chorus:
Cause you know my house
will always be your home
You know my heart is yours and yours alone
Is yours and yours alone
You know my house will always be your home
You know my heart is yours and yours alone
Is yours and yours alone
