Intro Chords: D A E A 
 
 A              
With the birth of their daughter 
      D      A 
The family begins 
 A              F#m      B7            E 
They tried for another then came the twins 
        D             
From toothaches to heartbreaks 
                     A 
And fights for the phone 
    D              A 
A house feels so empty 
          E                 A 
When the last child leaves home 
 
 
          D                 
When the last child leaves home 
                      A 
There's the rest of forever 
      B7 
To cherish the memories 
                  E 
That they made together 
         D               
They're part of each other 
                 A 
So they're not alone 
        D              A 
But a house feels so empty 
          E                 A 
When the last child leaves home 
 
 
 D A B7 E D A D A E A 
 
 
 A 
Now there's more peace and quiet 
       D           A 
Than they've ever had 
 A                F#m          B7          E 
But it's so damn quiet it's driving them mad 
             D                
So they're trading the old place 
                      A 
For a beach they can comb 
          D              A 
Cause a house feels so empty 
          E                 A 
When the last child leaves home 
 
 
          D 
When the last child leaves home 
                      A 
There's the rest of forever 
      B7 
To cherish the memories 
                 E 
That they made together 
         D             
They're part of each other  
                 A 
So they're not alone 
        D              A 
But a house feels so empty 
          E                F#m 
When the last child leaves home 
     D            A 
A house feels so empty  
          E                 D       A D A
