This Old House
recorded by the statler brothers

FF
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
       C majorC
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more
     G7G7
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
     C majorC
Ain't got time to fix the floor
     FF
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
    C majorC
Nor to mend the window pane
       G7G7
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
                C majorC
I'm a-getting ready to meet the saints

C majorC
This ole house once knew my children
C7C7    FF
This ole house once knew my wife
     G7G7
This ole house was home and comfort
   C majorC     FF     C majorC
As we fought the storms of life

This ole house once rang with laughter
C7C7    FF
This ole house heard many shouts
    G7G7
Now she trembles in the darkness
             C majorC
When the lightning walks about

       FF
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
       C majorC
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more
     G7G7
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
     C majorC
Ain't got time to fix the floor
     FF
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
    C majorC
Nor to mend the window pane
       G7G7
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
                C majorC
I'm a-getting ready to meet the saints

This ole hound dog lies a-sleeping
He don't know I'm gonna leave
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
And he'd sit there and howl and grieve
But my hunting days are over
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more
Gabriel done brought in my chariot
When the wind blew down the door

FF
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
       C majorC
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more
     G7G7
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
     C majorC
Ain't got time to fix the floor
     FF
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
    C majorC
Nor to mend the window pane
       G7G7
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
                C majorC
