INTRO:  A5  E5  B5  A5  E5  B5  A5  E5 
 
           A5                E5 
Since you left I can't stay sober 
         B5       A5          E5 
And I've let the grass grow over 
             B5               A5                   E5 
Those pretty flowers that you planted when we moved in 
        A5                  E5 
And the paint has started peeling 
          B5    A5          E5 
Down the hall, along the ceiling 
         B5                 A5            E5 
Above the busted frame your picture's hangin in 
 

         A5           E5                    A5                   E5 
And the carpet's wearin through, where I dragged around these blues 
        B5                A5             B5      A5       E5        E5 
And the curtain's torn in two, from me lookin out for you 
        A5            E5                    A5            E5 
Once we held it all together, but I can't do it on my own 
         B5         A5       B5           A5          E5 
This old house has gone to pieces since you ain't home  
 
 
INTRO 
 
Our TV won't get no picture 
There's no lightbulb in the fixture 
In our bedroom where you used to love on me 
All the memories that we once shared 
They're all locked forever in there 
Cause I locked the door and I can't find the key 
 
CHORUS 
 
This old house has gone to pieces since you ain't home
