COUNTRY HOUSE - Delta Rae


Tuning: Standard

Verse: D MajorD (x2)  BB A augmentedA G+G  D MajorD (x2)  A augmentedA (x4)

      D MajorD                          BB                 A augmentedA
In a country house with the windows lit by burning wicks

        G+G                   D MajorD                                        A augmentedA
And the walls held up by wood and bricks and ghosts that wander through

An old man died, but the help won't come till Monday next
And he's gone to meet the architects of the only world he knew


Chorus: G+G (x2)  D MajorD (x2)  A augmentedA (x4)
And he's lonesome
And he's lonesome


Verse: D MajorD (x2)  BB A augmentedA G+G  D MajorD (x2)  A augmentedA (x4)
And the family mourned, at the wake he lay in front of them
Just as silent as he'd ever been to any young child's eyes
And by buried skin, they shed their laughter and their tears
The pain of all those early years where innocence had died


Chorus: G+G (x2)  D MajorD (x2)  A augmentedA (x4)
But now they're lonesome
Yes they're lonesome


Verse/Bridge: G+G D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA
Memorials that we may build
They won't the holes forever fill
There is a deep and aching chill
That settles in our bones
In our bones


Chorus: G+G (x2)  D MajorD (x2)  A augmentedA (x4)
'Cause we're lonesome
(Did you ever love somebody?
Did you ever lose someone )
'Cause we're lonesome


Outro:
     D MajorD                           BB              A augmentedA
In a country house with the windows all lit up
