Old Old House

D
There's an old, old house
     G               D
that once was a man- sion
     G                    A
On a hill overlooking the town
                              G
But (D time has left a wreck- age
      D
Where once there was beauty
                 A                 
And soon the old house will tumble 
D
down

                             G     
But when the leaves start to fall 
  D
in autumn
                  G            
And the raindrops drip from the 
 D
trees
                   A
There's an old old man
                 D
Who walks in the garden
        G       A        D
And his head is bowed in memories

                      G          
They say he built the mansion for 
               D
the love of a woman
                   G              
They planned to be married in the 
A
fall
        D            D            
But her love for him faded in the 
             D
last days of summer
                     A           D
And the house stands empty after all
