CAPO 5 
 
INTRO: Am 
VERSE 1: 
   Am      
An old piece of tin  
     G 
With rust and nail holes 
C7M   
Holds up a house  
     Am  
As a storm wind blows 
 

   Am  
An old piece of tin  
     G 
With dog ears on each end 
Em               
Straighten them out  
               Am  G   Am 
Because you're needed again 
 
VERSE 2: 
   Am 
An old piece of tin 
      G 
Whose work is never done 
C7M 
Battered by the rain  
   Am        
Weathered by the sun 
 

        Am 
Just an old piece of tin 
   G   
On rafters old and rough 
Em 
Leaks away the tears  
              Am  G      Am  Bm  C G  Am   
But holds the puddles of love....... 
 
BREAK: 
C G Am C G  C G Am 
REPEAT VERSE 1 & 2 
 
BREAK: 
C G Am C G  C G Am 
 
           Am  
And though years may finally break you 
         G  
And your walls start falling in 
     Em 
It's funny how I feel about  
     Am   G       Am      
That old piece of tin
