Dave Gunning - House For Sale
CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO:   C     F    G     C     F    G  C  
There's a house for sale on a dead-end Fstreet
With a backyard view of a GfactoCry
The walls are strong like solid Fstone
And for twenty years it's Gbeen our Chome
I worked my life, fought on the Fline
Passed the gate ten Gthousand Ctimes
But now we're here and that the work is Fdone
They're gonna cut their losses Gone by Cone
I don't wanna Gbe the last one standing
To see it all fall down
'Cause I Fknow where this is going
And I don't wanna be aCround Dmwhen it's GgoneEm  F  C  
There's a meeting at the town hall toFnight
More bad news from the Gsuit and Ctie
They say it's not what they want, but what they have to Fdo
But it doesn't make much for Gme and Cyou
Don't Gbe the one who leaves me
To look you in the eyes
And say it's Ftime for us to be moving 
So we can leave it all beChind Dmwhen we're Ggone
INSTRUMENTAL:    Dm     C     Dm     C     Dm    F    G  C  
Our 'House For Sale' burned through the Fnight
From god's own hand came a Glightning Cstrike
We signed the cross in the fire's Fheat
And we said goodbye to that Gdead-end Cstreet
OUTRO:   (## fade to end ##)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, Gooh, ooh, Fooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, Gooh, ooh, Cooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, Gooh, ooh, Fooh

Dave Gunning - House For Sale

CAPO: 5th Fret

C F G C F G C

INTRO:

There's a house for sale on a dead-end street

G C

With a backyard view of a factory

The walls are strong like solid stone

G C

And for twenty years it's been our home

I worked my life, fought on the line

G C

Passed the gate ten thousand times

But now we're here and that the work is done

G C

They're gonna cut their losses one by one

I don't wanna be the last one standing

To see it all fall down

'Cause I know where this is going

C Dm G Em F C

And I don't wanna be around when it's gone

There's a meeting at the town hall tonight

G C

More bad news from the suit and tie

They say it's not what they want, but what they have to do

G C

But it doesn't make much for me and you

Don't be the one who leaves me

To look you in the eyes

And say it's time for us to be moving

C Dm G

So we can leave it all behind when we're gone

Dm C Dm C Dm F G C

INSTRUMENTAL:

Our 'House For Sale' burned through the night

G C

From god's own hand came a lightning strike

We signed the cross in the fire's heat

G C

And we said goodbye to that dead-end street

OUTRO: (## fade to end ##)
