^DThere are fifty liquor ^Aboxes in my ^Dhalls And a ^Ghundred empty nails upon my ^Dwalls There’s ^Bma sign out in my yard that read^Gs for sale And if ^Dthis old house could cry the tears would ^Afall

There are ^Dbargain-hungry ^Avultures every^Dwhere ^DBuying ^Gbroken toys old clothes and tupper^Dware The ^Bmphone’s been taken out they've stopped th^Ge mail And if ^Dthis old house could talk I'd say a ^Aprayer

I've been ^Dstrong and I've been sturdy And I've ^Gweathered every ^Dstorm I've ^Dalways kept your family safe and ^Awarm Now you’r^De packing up the laughter And you’r^Ge sweeping out the tears If this old ^Dhouse were build on memories I would ^Bmstand a thousand ^Ayears This old ^Dhouse this old ^Ghouse If this old ^Dhouse was built on memories I would s^Bmtand a ^Athousand ^Dyears

^DTake another look be^Afore you lock my ^Ddoor Where your ^Gshoes have worn the finish from my ^Dfloor Listen ^Bmto my banging pipes my creaking ^Gstairs Let your ^Dboys slide down my banister once ^Amore

I'll re^Dmember where you ^Ahid that extra ^Dkey Where the ^Ghammer and the bandaids used to ^Dbe I will ^Bmsmell your morning coffee in the ^Gair And I'll ^Dsee you hanging tinsel on the ^Atree

I've been ^Dstrong and I've been sturdy And I've ^Gweathered every ^Dstorm I've ^Dalways kept your family safe and ^Awarm Now you’r^De packing up the laughter And you’r^Ge sweeping out the tears If this old ^Dhouse were build on memories I would ^Bmstand a thousand ^Ayears **This ol^Dd house this ol^Gd house If this old ^Dhouse was built on memories I would s^Bmtand a ^Athousand ^Dyears
