G                             C          G
There's an old old house that once was a mansion

                          D7
On a hill overlooking the town

    G                            C              G
But time has left wreckage where once there was beauty

                 D7                G
And soon the old house will tumble down

    D7                       C       G
But when the leaves start to fall in autumn

        D7             C             G
And the rain starts to drip from the trees

                           C                 G
There's an old old man who walks through the garden

                D7           G
And his head is bowed in memory

                              C            G
They say he built the mansion because of a woman

                                      D7
And they planned to be married in the fall

    G                        C            G
But her love withered in the last days of summer

                    D7          G
And the house stood empty after all
