I just moved in my new house today.
                                   D
Moving was hard but I got squared away..
                                             E
When bells starting rings and chains rattled loud,
                              A
I knew I'd moved in a haunted house.

#2.
A
Still I made up my mind to stay.
                              D
Nothing was a-gonna drive me away.
                                      E
When I saw something that give me the creeps,
                            A
Had one big eye and two big feet.

#3.

I stood right there and I did the Freeze.
                              D
It did The Stroll right up to me.
                                               E
Made a noise with its feet that sounded like a drum.
                                          A
Said, "You gonna be here when the morning comes?"

"Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes.
                                  D
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run.
                             E
I bought this house, now I'm boss,
                              A
Ain't no haint's gonna run me off."

In my kitchen my stove was a blazing hot.
                            D
Coffee was a-boiling in the pot.
                         E
Grease had melted in the pan.
                           A
I had a hunk of meat in my hand.

#6.
A
From out of space there sat a man,
                                   D
On the hot stove with the pots and pans.
                             E
"Say that's hot!" I began to shout.
                                       A
He drank the hot coffee right from the spout.
A
He ate the raw meat right from my hand.
                                     D
Drank the hot grease from the frying pan.
                           E
And said to me "You better run, and don't be here
                 A
When the morning comes."

"Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes.
                                  D
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run.
                             E
I bought this house, now I'm boss,
                              A
Ain't no haint's gonna run me off."
