Verse 1

One less bell to answer

One less egg to fry

One less man to pick up after

I should be happy

But all I do is cry

Verse 2

(Cry, cry, no more laughter) I should be happy

(Oh, why did she go)

Since he left my life's so empty

Bridge

Though I try to forget it just can't be done

Each time the doorbell rings I still run

I don't know how in the world

To stop thinking of him (I should be happy)

'Cause I still love him so

I spend each day the way I start out

(I start and end each day crying)

Crying my heart out

Verse 3

One less bell to answer

One less egg to fry

One less man to pick up after

[B7-9]

No more laughter, no more love

Since he went away (Since she went away)

Since he went away

Bridge 2

A chair is still a chair

e-ven when there's no one sitting there;

[Ab7-9]

I'm not meant to live alone

turn this house into a home

[F7-9]

When I climb the stair and turn the key

Oh please be there still in love with me

.

One less bell to answer

Each time the doorbell rings I still run

(One less eggs to fried)

Verse 4

One less man to pick up after

[B7-9]

No more laughter, no more love

Since he went away (Since she went away)

Since he went away

All I do is cry
