[Eb]
This old house once knew my children, [Ab] this old house once knew my [Abm] wife.
[Bb] This old house was a home and comfort [Eb] as we fought the storm to life.
This old house once rang with laughter, this [Ab] old house heard many shouts.
Now [Bb] she trembles in the darkness when the night wind [Eb] walks about.
[Ab] Ain't gonna need this house no longer, [Eb] ain't gonna need this house no more.
[Bb] Ain't got time to fix a shingle, [Eb] ain't got time to fix a floor.
Ain't [Ab] got time for the hinges, not [Eb] a mandrel, windowpane.
Ain't [Bb] gonna need this house no longer, I'm getting ready [Eb] to meet the same.
This old house is a getting shaky, [Ab] this old house is a getting old.
This [Bb] old house lets in the rain, this [Eb] old house lets in the cold.
Oh my knees are a getting chilly, but I [Ab] feel no fear of pain.
[Bb] All I see is an angel peeking through a broken [Eb] windowpane.

My old hound knows lives are sleeping, he [Ab] don't know I'm a gonna leave.
Or [Bb] else he'd wake up by the fireplace [Eb] and sit there and out and dream.
But my hunting days are over, [Ab] ain't gonna hunt that coon no more.
[Bb] Gabriel's done brought in his chariot when the wind blew [Eb] down the [Bbm] door.
[Ab] Ain't gonna need this house no longer, ain't [Eb] gonna need this house no more.
[Bb] Ain't got time to fix a shingle, [Eb] ain't got time to fix a [G] floor.
[Ab] Ain't got time for all the [Eb] handle windowpane.
