      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.

 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."

 Through every single window I see your face
 
      E7              Fdim   E7         A7  Cdim    A7  
 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

 A Cottage For Sale.
