Intro: Bm A G F# (4x)
Bm A G F#
This house is a graveyard for memories
Bm A G F#
Where good times have come to die
Bm A G F#
Where trust and love are all buried
Bm A G F#
Deep down under painful eye
Bm A G F#
And this house is a sad destination
Bm A G F#
And if I could, I would not return
Bm A G F#
But to place my past on the pillow
Bm A G F#
Set fire to the bed, and watch it burn
[Refrão]
G F#
This house, it crushes my spirit
Bm A G F#
And has stolen all my pride
E G
And I'm tortured with every minute
F# G F# Bm A G F#
I'm forced to remain inside of this house
And these walls are all held together
With deception and wasted years
And how am I supposed to rest my body
When I know I'm not welcome here
Cause this floor is stained and sour
With the blood of the innocent
And these halls are haunted with the echos of
Empty promises of time well spent
[Refrão]
G F#
This house, it crushes my spirit
Bm A G F#
And has stolen all my pride
E G
And I'm tortured with every minute
F# G F# Bm A G F#
I'm forced to remain inside of this house
