If This House Could Talk
If This House Could Talk
by Stonewall Jackson
FC
If this house could talk oh what a story
G7C
Although it's only made of wood and stone
FC
How it would brag about its days of glory
G7C
When it almost became a happy home
G7C
I just came back in town to sign the papers
FG7C
The house is sold now it's no longer mine
F
And since the place I built for you
CF
Once meant so much to me
CG7C
Thought I'd drop by and see it one more time
G7C
I parked the car got out and looked it over
FG7C
The unkept lawn now seems so strange to me
F
That rambling rose that I'd set out
CF
With tender care had died
CG7C
And weeds grow now where flowers used to be
G7C
I walked up close looked through the picture window
FG7C
The past was oh so clear as I looked through
F
I listened close and almost heard
CF
Those tender words of love
CG7C
As I sat by the fireside with you
