HOUSE ON OLD LONESOME ROAD
Conway Twitty 
Album: House On Old Lonesome Road
Submitted by: Christopher R.

Intro: (F) (C/F) (Bb) (Bb) (F) (C/F) (Bb) (Bb)

(F) Every night it's the (C/F) same old grind
And I (Bb) leave work at (C) five-o-(F)five
Been doing my best to for(C/F)get about her
But she's (Bb) driving me out of my (Csus) mind (C)
When (Dm) I get home, I (C) know what I'll find
How I (Bb) wish that it wasn't (G) so
There'll (Bb) be no one (C) there to (F/A) hold me to(Bb)night
In that (F/C) house on (C) old lonesome (F) road

I recall how we laughed
When we read the name
In the paper before we moved in
And after we did our friends all asked
If that house was lonesome back then
We were so young, our dreams were so new
There's just no way that we could have known
The irony of the place where we loved
That house on old lonesome road

   (Bb) It's only shingles and shutters
   And a (F) case of worn out stairs
   (Eb) Just like my old (Bb) heart they need re(F)pairs
   (Bb) Maybe I should (C) sell it
   Yeah, (F) maybe that would be the (Bb) best
   (G7) Maybe then someone else could find
   Some (Gm) love (F/A) at (Gm/Bb) that (Bb/D) add(Csus4)ress (C7)

I used to love that old house so much
Back before she went away
Now everything there is just gathering dust
I should clean it up if I'm gonna stay
But I don't have too much time anymore
I'm too busy talking to ghosts
'Cause her memory, keeps me company
In that house on old lonesome road

(Repeat Chorus)

(F) Every night it's the (C/F) same old grind
And I (Bb) leave work at (C) five-o-(F)five
Been doing my best to for(C/F)get about her
But she's (Bb) driving me (C) out of my (F) mind
