My Fathers House chords by Bruce Springsteen

INTRO:  D  A  D  D

VERSES
 D           G            D           D
Last night I dreamed that I was a child

 D           D            A           A
Out where the pines grow wild and tall

 D           G            D           D
I was trying to make it home through the forest

 D           A            D           D
Before the darkness falls

 D           G            D           D
I heard the wind rustling through the trees

 D           D            A           A
And ghostly voices rose from the fields

 D           G            D           D
I ran with my heart pounding down that broken path

 D           A            D           D
With the devil snappin at my heels


 D           G            D           D
I broke through the trees and there in he night

 D           D            A           A
My fathers house stood shining hard and bright

 D           G            D           D
The branches and brambles tore my clothes and scratched my arms

 D           A            D           D
But I ran till I fell shaking in his arms



HARMONICA  =  D  A  D  D


VERSES
 D           G            D           D
I awoke and I imagined the hard things that pulled us apart

 D           D            A           A
Will never again sir tear us from each others hearts

 D           G            D           D
I got dressed and to that house I did ride

 D           A            D           D
From out on the road I could see its windows shining in light


 D           G            D           D
I walked up the steps and stood on the porch

 D           D            A           A
A woman I didnt recognize came and spoke to me through a chained door

 D           G            D           D
I told her my story and who Id come for

 D           A            D           D
She said "Im sorry son but no one by that name lives here anymore"



HARMONICA  =  VERSE


VERSE
 D           G            D           D
My fathers house shines hard and bright

 D           D            A           A
It stands like a beacon calling me in the night

 D           G            D           D
Calling and calling so cold and alone

 D           A            D           D
Shining cross this dark highway where our sins lie unatoned
