D                       F#7         C#m7/5- 
Our little dream castle with every dream gone  
 
      B7			         Gdim           Gm7 
Is lonely and silent -- the shades are all drawn, 
 
    D7	      D7/F#    G	   Gm7 
And my heart is heavy as I gaze upon 
 
E A7           D 
A cottage for sale. 
 
 
      D                     F#7      C#m7/5- 
The lawn we were proud of is waving in hay; 
 
     B7                 Gdim       Gm7 
Our beautiful garden has withered away. 
 
       D7	        D7/F#     G           Gm7 
Where we planted roses the weeds seem to say, 
 
 E  A7          D 
"A cottage for sale." 
 
 
 
Bridge 
 
  F#7                       B7 
Through every single window I see your face

But when I reach the win - dow there's only empty space 
 
 
 
     D                         F#7         C#m7/5- 
The key's in the mail box, the same as be - fore 
 
    B7                  Gdim    Gm7 
But no one is waiting for me anymore 
 
     D7        D7/F#     G           Gm7	 
The end of our story is told on the door
