[G]
[D] [G]
The gable wall [D] is all [G] that's left now
[C] The old [G] thatched cottage [C]
has fallen [D] down
I dry [G] my eyes as [C] I fondly [G] remember
The
[C] [G] days of long ago when [D] I [G] was young
In my father's house we were poor [C] and rich and plump
No [G] TV, but music there [D] was plenty of
[G] My mama hung [D] old melodies [Dm] and we all sang [C] along
In my [G]
father's house [D] when I [G] was young
Come the time when [D] I [G] am older
[C] And my [G] own children [C] are reared [D] and young
I wonder [G] then will [C] they fondly [G]
remember
The [C] days [G] of long ago [D] when they [G] were young
In my father's house a smile would greet [C] you at the door
A friendly [G] word even [E] travellers there [D] was welcome for
And [G] at night time [D] neighbours rambled in and [Dm] might stay till twelve [C] or one
In my [G] father's house [D] when I [G] was young
[C] [G]
[D] [G]
Years have passed [D] and [G] times are changing
The [C] [G] rambling house [C]
has [D] almost gone
But still I [G] hear the
[C] laughter [G] of children
[C] Just [G] like long ago [D] when I [G] was young
In my father's house we were poor [C] but rich and plump
No [G] TV, but good times there [D] were plenty of
We [E] [G] made the best [D] of what we had [Dm] and we sang [G] happy [C] songs
In my [G]
father's house [D] when I [G] was young
In my [D]
father's house [C] when I was [G] young
[D] [G]
