I just moved in my new house today.
                                   D5
Moving was hard but I got squared away..
                                             E5
When bells starting rings and chains rattled loud,
                              A5
I knew I'd moved in a haunted house.

Still I made up my mind to stay.
                              D5
Nothing was a-gonna drive me away.
                                      E5
When I saw something that give me the creeps,
                            A5
Had one big eye and two big feet.

I stood right there and I did the Freeze.
                              D5
It did The Stroll right up to me.
                                               E5
Made a noise with its feet that sounded like a drum.
                                          A5
Said, "You gonna be here when the morning comes?"

"Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes.
                                  D5
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run.
                             E5
I bought this house, now I'm boss,
                              A5
Ain't no haint's gonna run me off."

In my kitchen my stove was a blazing hot.
                            D5
Coffee was a-boiling in the pot.
                         E5
Grease had melted in the pan.
                           A5
I had a hunk of meat in my hand.

A5
From out of space there sat a man,
                                   D5
On the hot stove with the pots and pans.
                             E5
"Say that's hot!" I began to shout.
                                       A5
He drank the hot coffee right from the spout.
A5
He ate the raw meat right from my hand.
                                     D5
Drank the hot grease from the frying pan.
                           E5
And said to me "You better run, and don't be here
                 A5
When the morning comes."

"Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes.
                                  D5
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run.
                             E5
I bought this house, now I'm boss,
                              A5
Ain't no haint's gonna run me off."
