When I waGs a baby we had no home
And we werenC’t the only family we were not alone
GDaddy built a shelter from the wind and rainD  
GThrough the years I’ve been building this home
Gonna build Cit solid gonna build it strong
Gonna build Git myself I’m an independent DmanG  C  G  
So I’m singing now
GLittle by little and stone by stone
Gonna build Cthis building on my own
And nobody Gcan say this is mine but meD  
GLittle by little and stone by stone
Gonna build Cthis building on my own
And nobody Gcan say this is mine but meD  G  C  G  
When I was a young man I drifted around
Here and there and from town to town
Getting drunk drinking red red wine
Then one day I realised
When I met that girl with those big brown eyes
Oh I knew she’d be a friend of mine
So I’m singing now
Little by little and stone by stone
Gonna build this building on my own
And nobody can say this is mine but me
Little by little and stone by stone
Gonna build this building on my own
And nobody can say this is mine but me
[instrumental verse - same chords]
Ain’t nobody gonna Gtear this Cbuilding downG  
Ain’t nobody gonna Gtear this Cbuilding downD  
Cos it’s bGuilt inside of meG7  
Where nobodCy else can see
Ain’t nobody gonna Gtear this Dbuilding downG  C  G  
Well we had some trouble and we had some strife
Had to quit my drinking had to change my life
I had to do it for my family
Now when I quit drinking it got harder still
And I know there’s a way where there’s a will
And I won’t give up, until we all are free.
So I’m singing now
Little by little and stone by stone
Gonna build this building on my own
And nobody can say this is mine but me
Little by little and stone by stone
Gonna build this building on my own
And nobody can say this is mine but me
Ain’t nobody gonna tear this building down
Ain’t nobody gonna tear this building down
Cos it’s built inside of me
Where nobody else can see
Ain’t nobody gonna tear this building down
Ain’t nobody gonna tear this building down
Ain’t nobody gonna tear this building down
Cos it’s built inside of me
Where nobody else can see
Ain’t nobody gonna tear this building down
Little by little stone by stone
Gonna build this building on my own
And nobody can say this is mine but me
Little by little stone by stone
Gonna build this building on my own
And nobody can say this is mine but me
Nobody but me
