Intro: G, C

During the verse you only play the 6th and 5th string on the guitar. The C is only 
the 5th and 4th. 

During the other parts of the song, it is the full chords.

G                        C      G
Got a brand new roof above my head
G                    C      G
All the empty boxes thrown away
Em
I rearranged the place a hundred times today
C
But the ordering of objects couldn't hide whats missing

G         C              Am      C   
All these things, should make me happy
Am      C
Make me happy to be home again
G         C              Am      C
All these things, should make me happy
Am            C           
Make me happy to be alone again

G                      C   G
Got myself a bottle of red wine
G                        C       G
Got a night with nothing else to do
Em
I think I might know what I really want
C
But is a brighter discontent the best that I can hope to find
G                      C   G
Got a big black television set
G                     C     G
Now I can watch just what I want
Em
But I'm here staring up at pictures on the wall
C
Where are you, you're still stuck inside 'em all


G         C              Am      C   
All these things, should make me happy
Am      C
Make me happy to be home again
G         C              Am      C
All these days, should make me happy
Am      C           
Make me happy to be alone again

G           D                            Am       
But love is not these belongings and surroundings
C                                            G
Though theres meaning in the memories they hold
           D                  Am    
A breaking heart in an empty apartment
C                            G
Was the loudest sound I ever heard

G, Am, C

G                        C      G
Got a desk, I'll write myself a note
G                  C         G
Pretending that it came from you
Em
On hotel stationary, from the time we first met
C
Whatever I can do, 'cause I won't throw my hands up yet

G         C              Am      C   
All these things, should make me happy
Am      C
Make me happy to be home again
G         C              Am      C
All these things, should make me happy
Am      C           
Make me happy to be alone again

G           D                           Am       
But love is not these belongings that surround you
C                                          G
Though theres meaning in the memories they hold
           D                    Am    
A breaking heart in an empty apartment
C                           G
Was the loudest sound I ever heard

G, D, Am, C x2

G                   D              Am            C       
But I'll be fine if I don't look around me that 
G    D         Am    C
much for whats gone
   G           D                Am              C   
If only I could wait here just a little while 
    G             D     Am    C
and let time pass in my room

G, D, Am, C (end on G)
