House She Lived In Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

F Dm A♯ C

FThe house she lived in

Dmis now all we're left with

A♯it'll take a lifetime to Cpay for this

Al the nuns were singin'

and the crowds were immense

all the papers wrote it a different way

Those known desirers

her first admirers

all claimed that they were her favorite

But I know that it was

me alone she loved

though I still have nothing to show for it

FAin't no calling you back

 I just want you to kDmnow

I've your voice on my head

 and your frame on the wA♯all

it all went wrong

 but I wish you'ld've staCyed with me

love stay with me

Her brother John said

he ain't sure if she's dead

or just hiding somewhere away from him.

We all still remember

that cold December

with you lawn, and blaze, and razor blade drawn

Ain't no calling you back

I just want you to know

I've your voice on my head

and your frame on the wall

it all went wrong

But I wish you'ld've stayed with me

love stay with me

Oh love, when it's cold love

That's when I know love

That's when I know

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Well now it's all gone

I know I'll see you in the flowers

Now it's all done

Yeah I'll lay down there for hours

Now it's all gone

I know I'll see you in the flowers

Oh, honey, won't you come home?

I'd offer my soul

if I thought it might help at all

If I thought it might help at all

and I'd follow you down that road

If I thought it might help at all.

(Now go sing it to strangers.)
