                  This Ole House 

                                          Jimmy Dean

C
This ole house once knew my children 
         F
This ole house once knew my wife
         G7
This ole house was home and comfort 
      C
As we fought the storms of life


  
This ole house once rang with laughter 
         F
This ole house heard many a shouts
         C
Now she trembles in the darkness
          G7              C
When the lightnin' walks about


                 F
I ain't a gonna need this house no longer 
              C
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
          G7
Ain't got time to fix his shingles 
          C
Ain't got time to fix the door


          F
Ain't got time to oil the hinges 
       C
Nor to mind the window panes
              G7
I ain't gonna need this house no longer 
                              C
I'm gettin' ready to meet the saints



This ole house is a gettin' shaky 
         F
This ole house is a gettin' old
         G7
This ole house stands in the rain 
          C
This ole house stands in the cold



Oh my knees are gettin' chilly 
      F
But I feel no fear or pain
        C                                   
Cause I see an angel a peekin' 
            G7          C
Through a broken window pane




This ole house is afraid of thunder 
          F
This ole house is afraid of storms
         G7
This ole house just groans and trembles 
         C
When the night wind flings his arms



This ole house is a gettin' feeble 
         F
This ole house is a needin' paint
           C  
Just like me it's tuckered out
                  G7                C
But I'm gonna get ready to meet the saints


Now my hound dog lies a-sleepin'
         F
He don't know I'm gonna leave
          G7
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
          C
And he'd sit there and howl and greive



But my huntin'  days are over
             F
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more
         C   
Gabriel done grought in my chariot
          G7                 C
When the wind blew down the door
