Intro: (D) (D) (Gmaj7) (A7sus) (D) (D) (Gmaj7) (A7sus)
A (D) little white house, in the (Em7) heart of town
On a (A7sus) little sad street, just a (D) little run down (G) (A)
Be(D)came a home, for (Em7) Bill and Sue
Two (A7sus) newlyweds, who (A7) did the best that (D) they could do
(Gmaj7) And when they (G6) brush each other, (F#m7) passin' in the (D/F#) hall
(Em7) Sue would smile and say, this (A7sus) place is really small
But you know, (D) love grows best in little houses
With fewer walls to separate
Where you (G) eat and sleep so close together
You can't help but comm(A)unicate
Oh, and (D) if we had more room between us, think of (D/F#) all we'd (G) miss
(Em7) Love grows best, in (A7sus) houses just like (D) this
(Gmaj7) (A7sus)
Before too long, Sue and Bill
Were makin' plans, for Jack and Jill
Oh, happy day, when the news came in
But what to do, when they found out Sue was having twins
When they could not pass each other in the hall
Well, Sue would smile and say, this place is really, really small
( Repeat Chorus )
(G) That little white frame house (D) still keeps them warm
(Em7) Though it's been thirty-two years, (A7sus) since the kids were born
(G) And when they look back now, they (D) hold each (D/F#) other (Gmaj7) tight
And (Em7) whisper in each other's ears, (A7sus) "You know you were right"
( Repeat Chorus )
Yeah (Em7) Love grows best, in (A7sus) houses just like (D) this (Gmaj7) (A7sus) (D)
