[Intro]
C G
Ooooh ooh
F C
Woh oh oh
F C
Oh oh oh
F C G
Oh oh ohhh ohhhh
 
[Verse]
F C
Got so much on my mind
F C
So much to get off my chest
F C
The things I’d ask are like a mountain
G
Of letters on a desk
 
F C
And it’s all so complicated
F C
To tell lies from the truth
F C
I think things would be more simple
G
If it was all under one roof
 
[Chorus]
F C
I wish the world and all that’s in it
F C
Was nothing but a little brick house
F C
Somewhere to hang the heartache
G
I’ve been carryin’ around
 
F C
The door was always open
F Am
And love was always there
F C
And God was always rockin’
G
By the window in His chair
 
F G
All the questions that I've have for the Man
F
If He was right upstairs
 
C G
Woh oh ohhh ohhhh
 
[Verse]
F C
Yeah I'd knock on that door
Am C
I’d sit at his feet
 
And I’d let Him tell me
G
Let it go, let it be
 
Am C
And I’d tell him some of my plans
Am C
Just to hear Him laugh
Am C
He’d say let’s talk more often
G
And I’d say, I'd sure like that
 
[Chorus]
F C
I wish the world and all that’s in it
F C
Was nothing but a little brick house
F C
Somewhere to hang the heartache
G
I’ve been carryin’ around
 
F C
The door was always open
F Am
And love was always there
F C
And God was always rockin’
G
By the window in His chair
 
F G
All the questions that I've have for the Man
F C
If He was right upstaaaaairs
 
[Instrumental/Solo]
F C G
 
[Break]
F
Oh I'd never wanna leave
Am G
Yeah how good would it be
 
[Chorus]
F C
If the world and all that’s in it
F C
Was nothing but a little brick house
F C
Somewhere to hang the heartache
G
I’ve been carryin’ around
 
F C
Oh the door was always open
F Am
And love was always there
F C
And God was always rockin’
G
By the window in His chair
 
F G
All the questions that I've have for the Man
F G
All the questions that I haa-a-ad
 
C
If He was right upstairs
 
[Outro]
C
Oh oh oh
F C G
Woh oh ohhh ohhh
 
N.C.
If He was right upstairs
 
(Acapella)
 
I wish the world and all that’s in it
 
Was nothing but a little brick house
 
Somewhere to hang the heartache
 
I’ve been carryin’ around
 
The door was always open
 
And love was always there
 
And God was always rockin’
 
By the window in His chair
