Since You Ain't Home-Mark Chesnutt

Since you left I can't stay sober and I've let the grass grow over Those pretty flowers that you planted when we moved in And the paint has started peeling, down the hall, along the ceiling Above the busted frame your picture's hangin' in The carpet's wearin' through, where I dragged around these blues And the curtain's torn in two, from me lookin' out for you Once we held it all together, but I can't do it on my own This old house has gone to pieces since you ain't home Our TV won't get no picture, there's no light-bulb in the fixture In our bedroom where you used to love on me All the memories that we once shared, they're all locked forever in there 'Cause I locked the door and I can't find the key More, the carpet's wearin' through, where I dragged around these blues And the curtain's torn in two, from me lookin' out for you Once we held it all together, but I can't do this on my own This old house has gone to pieces since you ain't home This old house has gone to pieces since you ain't home
