# #This is a great song of Warren's. There's a haromica part in the begining, after every #solo, and the end. I'll try to find it and post it on here. Enjoy. # 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 G 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 (2X) G I may be old and I may be bent D But I had the money till it all got spent D I had the money till they made me pay G 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 (2X) C I was in the house when the house burned down G I met the man with the thorny crown D I helped him carry his cross through town G D I was in the house when the house burned down G C Em G (2X) (Solo) C I was in the house when the house burned down G I met the man with the thorny crown D I helped him carry his cross through town G D I was in the house when the house burned down G C Em G 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 G 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 (Repeat) Thats it. It sounds close. I'll try and find the harmonica. Keep Rockin' you Excitable Boy! *Chords corrected 2/15/2013 by Soundicus
