This Old House chords

[VERSE 1]

[D]There are fifty liquor [A]boxes in my [D]halls
And a [G]hundred empty nails upon my [D]walls
There’s [Bm]a sign out in my yard that read[G]s for sale
And if [D]this old house could cry the tears would [A]fall

[VERSE 2]

There are [D]bargain-hungry [A]vultures every[D]where
[D]Buying [G]broken toys old clothes and tupper[D]ware
The [Bm]phone’s been taken out they've stopped th[G]e mail
And if [D]this old house could talk I'd say a [A]prayer

[CHORUS]
I've been [D]strong and I've been sturdy
And I've [G]weathered every [D]storm
I've [D]always kept your family safe and [A]warm
Now you’r[D]e packing up the laughter
And you’r[G]e sweeping out the tears
If this old [D]house were build on memories
I would [Bm]stand a thousand [A]years
This old [D]house this old [G]house
If this old [D]house was built on memories I would s[Bm]tand a [A]thousand [D]years

[VERSE 3]

[D]Take another look be[A]fore you lock my [D]door
Where your [G]shoes have worn the finish from my [D]floor
Listen [Bm]to my banging pipes my creaking [G]stairs
Let your [D]boys slide down my banister once [A]more

[VERSE 4]

I'll re[D]member where you [A]hid that extra [D]key
Where the [G]hammer and the bandaids used to [D]be
I will [Bm]smell your morning coffee in the [G]air
And I'll [D]see you hanging tinsel on the [A]tree

[CHORUS]
I've been [D]strong and I've been sturdy
And I've [G]weathered every [D]storm
I've [D]always kept your family safe and [A]warm
Now you’r[D]e packing up the laughter
And you’r[G]e sweeping out the tears
If this old [D]house were build on memories
I would [Bm]stand a thousand [A]years
**This ol[D]d house this ol[G]d house
If this old [D]house was built on memories I would s[Bm]tand a [A]thousand [D]years
