[N] There's [A] a house on a hill, [D] I wonder where the [A] doorbell in the valley [E] below, [B] where the river [E] wades.
A sausage thing is [A] made of tans, and it's not the southern way.
[D] Oh, Cappuccino's [A] her name, she wakes me [E] up when the sun goes down.
The wheel of [A] love goes round, and the bluffs [D] go round.
Love [A] goes round, and the bluffs [B] go round.
Joy [E] feels high, [A] I ain't got many [D] for Cappuccino [E] to spend, but then the [A] rails go round.
Oh, love, I never can, [D] I go down to the [A] cartoon gym, and I make [E] my [B] time worth while [E] to them.
And I climb back up [A] again, and she wakes by the door.
[D] Oh,
[A] Cappuccino's her story, she loves [E] my feet [A] when the sun [E] goes down.
The wheel of [A] love goes round, and the bluffs [D] go round.
Love [A] goes round, and the bluffs [B] go round.
Joy [E] feels high, I [A] ain't got many [D] for Cappuccino [E] to spend, but then the [A] rails go round.
Oh, dear, the heart is sick with thirst, [D] and the sea will shut [A] my mouth.
I can never [E] get rid of the cotton grain, but I know I've got [A] what's mine, with a soft, subtle flame.
[D] Oh, Cappuccino's [A] her name, she wakes [E] me up [B] when the sun [E] goes down.
The wheel of [A] love goes round, and the bluffs [D] go round.
Love goes [A]
round, and the bluffs [B] go round.
Joy [E] feels high, I [A] ain't got many [D] for Cappuccino [E] to [B] spend, [E] but then the rails [A] go round.
Rails go round.
[D] [A]
