G
I had the shit till it all got smoked
D
I kept the promise till the vow got broke
D
I had to drink from the lovin' cup

I stood on the banks till the river rose up
C
I saw the bride in her wedding gown
G D
I was in the house when the house burned down
G C Em D

I may be old and I may be bent
D
But I had the money till it all got spent

The I had the sense to be on my way
C
I had to stay in the underground
D D
I was in the house when the house burned down
G C Em D
