                     D
This house wasn't so good

     Em              D                  G
'Til we moved in and did what we could

                                         D
Picked up the rubbish, gave it a coat of paint

            Em                           D          C
We're gonna do a little more when things loosen up again
CHORUS:
     D           Em
Whoa-ho, in this house

        G     D                Em      G
Whoa-ho-ho ho ho, in this this house

                         D
In this house, in my own room

          Em                           D            G
Where the past and the present will be coming soon

                       D
Go up together on that bulletin board

        Em                           D                C
I wanna hang a little [ picture on it without my ward ]
CHORUS:
     D           Em
Whoa-ho, in this house

        G     D                Em     C
Whoa-ho-ho ho ho, in this this house
BRIDGE 1:
          G     D                  Em   C
Sooner or later, everybody settles in

                 G       D                      Em   C
And chances look greater, I live and breath within

               G     D                       Em   C
But, sooner or later, everybody says [ don't go ]

       G     D              B
It was better to wait until now
CHORUS:
        Em
In this house

     G  D                Em    G  D  
Whoa-ho__, yeah, in this house

    G                       D
The people before us, their family had grown

               Em                             D 
They said they rattled in the rooms since the kids moved on

     G                                 D
They planted a tree when the first was born

           Em                        D               C
They wanna leave it behind, like the house, too much room
CHORUS:
D          Em
Whoa, this house

        G     D                Em     D  C
Whoa-ho-ho ho ho, in this this house
BRIDGE 2:
          G     D                Em   C
Sooner or later, everybody moves on

         G   D                Em          C
Isn't it sad, [ such part are done, done ]

          G     D                   Em   C
Sooner or later, everybody says goodbye

               G       D               B
And never know whether, to laugh or to cry
CHORUS:
        Em
In this house

     G  D               Em    
Whoa-ho__, in this this house
OUTRO:
      G                            D                     Em    
Well, freedom is my cause and with these walls, we talk about it

G    D                Em
Whoa-ho, in this this house

                                D
Ah, you get a little lease, you get a turn

   C                                    B                    Em
To plant a little something then you're all alone, you gotta move on

   G  D                 Em
Oo-oo-ooh, in this this house

    G                             D                   Em
You sit in this old house and you fix walls and talk about it

G    D                Em
Whoa-ho, in this this house

G    D                Em
Whoa-ho, in this this house

G  D                Em
Oo-ooh, in this this house

G  D                 Em
Oo-ooh, in this this house

G  D                 Em
Oo-ooh, in this this house

    G                             D                   Em
You sit in this old house and you fix walls and talk about it
