[Verse 1]
        C
This house
        F       C
She's holding secrets
     F      Am     F         C  G
I got my change behind the bed
       C
In a coffee can
   F       C
I throw my nickels in
 F       Am     F       C
Just in case I have to leave

[Chorus]
           F          C
And I will go if you ask me to
          F           G
I will stay if you dare
           C      G       Am
And if I go I'm goin shameless
            F                  C F
I'll let my hunger take me there

[Verse 2]
       C
This house
        F         C
She's quite the talker
       F         Am
She creeks and moans
     F        C G
She keeps me up
          C
And the photographs
      F     C
Know I'm a liar
      F      Am       F        C
They just laugh as I burn her down

[Chorus]
           F          C
And I will go if you ask me to
          F           G
I will stay if you dare
         C      G       Am
And if I go I'm goin on fire
            F                   C F
I'll let my anger take me there

[Bridge]
       G
The shingles man they're shaking
      C                        F
The back door's burning through
           C            G       Am
This old house she's quite the keeper
          F            C F
Quite the keeper of you

And if I go I'm goin crazy
            F                   C
I'll let my darlin take me there
           C      G      Am
And if I go I'm goin crazy
            F                    C
I'll let my darlin take me there
