I Was In The House When The House Burned Down Warren Zevon
[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]I was in the house when the [D]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]I was in the house when the [D]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]I was in the house when the [D]house burned down
[G] [C] [Em] [G] (2X)
