I had the shit till it all got smoked
CmI kept the promise till the vow got broke
I had to drink from the lovin' cup
BbI stood on the banks till the river rose up
EbI saw the bride in her wedding gown
I was in the house when the house burned down

I may be old and I may be bent
But I had the money till it all got spent
I had the money till they made me pay
Then I had the sense to be on my way
I had to stay in the underground
I was in the house when the house burned down
Eb
I was in the house when the house burned down
I met the man with the thorny crown
FI helped Him carry his cross through town
Gm F BbI was in the house when the house burned down
I was in the house when the house burned down
I met the man with the thorny crown
I helped Him carry his cross through town
I was in the house when the house burned down
I had the shit till it all got smoked
I kept the promise till the vow got broke
I had to drink from the lovin' cup
I stood on the banks till the river rose up
I saw the bride in her wedding gown
I was in the house when the house burned down
