V1:
[D]This ole house once knew his children
[D7]This ole [G]house once knew his wife
This ole [A7]house was home and comfort
As they [D]fought the [G]storms of [D]life
[D7]This old house once rang with laughter
This old [G]house heard many shouts
Now he [A7]trembles in the darkness
When the lightnin' walks [D]about

Chorus:

[G]Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
Ain't a-gonna [D]need this house no more
Ain't got [A7]time to fix the shingles
Ain't got [D]time to fix the floor
Ain't got [G]time to oil the hinges
Nor to [D]mend the windowpane
Ain't a-gonna [A7]need this house no longer
He's a-gettin' ready to meet the [D]saints

V2:
[D]This ole house is a-gettin' shaky
[D7]This ole [G]house is a-gettin' old
This ole [A7]house lets in the rain
This ole [D]house lets [G]in the [D]cold
[D7]Oh his knees are a-gettin' chilly
But he [G]feels no fear or pain
'Cause he [A7]sees an angel peekin'
Through a broken window[D]pane

Chorus:

V3:
[D]This ole house is afraid of thunder
[D7]This ole [G]house is afraid of storms
This ole [A7]house just groans and trembles
When the [D]night wind [G]flings its [D]arms
[D7]This ole [house is gettin' feeble
This old [G]house is needin' paint
Just like [A7]him it's tuckered out
But he's a-gettin' ready to meet the [D]saints

Chorus:
