When your baby ain't around Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I don't recall the icebox ever
humming quite so loud
That clock upon the wall,
sounding like a crowd
[C]My that dog is restless
[F]He don't eve[C]r settle dow[G]n
Now [D]ain't it strange what
[Em]occupies your [F]mind
When your [C]baby ain't around
[G]

[Verse 2]
When your [C]baby ain't around
I swear [Eb]the moon and stars won't [G]shine
And nights get longer all the time
I'm so [C]lonesome missing you
If you [Eb]wanna know the truth
I nev[G]er thought I'd [F]ever
be this [E]down[Eb]
That's [D]all my [Em]body's got [D]a mind to do
[C]Now that my bab[D]y ain't around
[G]

[Verse 3]
I don't recall this bedroom
ever being quite so large
Or this big old mattress ever
sleeping quite so hard
[C]My the days come [F]early
When [C]your sleep is less than [G]sound
[D]Dreams don't seem to mat
[Em]ter much at [F]all
When your [C]baby ain't around
[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]When your baby ain't around
I swear [Eb]the moon and stars won't [G]shine
And nights get longer all the time
I'm so [C]lonesome missing you
If you [Eb]wanna know the truth
I nev[G]er thought I'd [F]ever
be this [E]down[Eb]
That's [D]all my [Em]body's got [D]a mind to do
[C]Now that my bab[D]y ain't around
