C
G
C
G
Once out
C
G
to another part of the city
On some far away errand I went
C
G
walking one day
My path might well have been
C
G
drawn by committee
With all the time in the world I went
C
G
winding my way
Verse 2
G
C
It's true I've never been known for
Some would say vague and
C
G
I'd say that's fair
C
But I couldn't lie to her face without
Can you believe I'd forgot
C
G
what I'd find there?
C
G
For there stood the house like it had done forever
Verse 3
C
Or at least since circa 1939
G
The house that we lived in when
C
G
we were together
The place that we rented
C
G
when you were still mine
C
G
The broken antenna still stuck in the roof gently rocking
Verse 4
C
G
C
An unpicked apple still hung from
G
C
G
the tree in the yard
C
I tried to peak through a window
Verse 5
G
C
But what would I say to whomever
G
answered
C
G
Would my eyes give myself away if I lied?
I could say I was collecting
C
G
the national census
C
G
And ask how many they had living inside
Verse 6
C
I searched through my pockets to see if
G
C
G
I had something to sell
C
A two dollar coin, an old bus ticket,
C
For some stones are best left unturned,
Verse 7
C
G
from inside its belly
Sounds I recalled from days
C
G
I left my key
A footstep, a clank, someone
C
G
turn down the telly
A shadow beneath the door,

Verse 8
G
I said, "Hello,
C
G
I once lived at this very address
You might know my name from some
C
G
unclaimed mail"
She said, "You should have showed
C
G
up a long time before this
But if you wait right here then I'll
C
G
go check the pile
She left me there standing
C
G
alone in the doorway
C
G
Just like the trespasser in my own brain
I took one step inside and looked
C
G
down through the hallway
C
G
Just saw the house and I went back again
Verse 9
G
Oh, the horror, the horror, oh,
C
G
hell and tarnation
The wallpaper's gone now
the wall's painted green,
C
And a tapestry of some vulgar
Hung where the old pictori
C
G
al once had been
Verse 10
C
Oh where were the poor little ghosts of
C
Trapped 'neath the carpets now covering
C
Memories of you are now turning
Am
D
My heart was aching
G
C
G
I ran, I ran, till I ran out of running
Verse 11
I tried to go faster than
C
G
what I'd just seen
C
I fell on the footpath all breathless
Looking like I'd just come
C
through Halloween

Verse 12
G
Now some memories are precious as a diamond
And others you have to think
C
G
what they could fall
But they're best if they're left in a
C
G
place you can't find 'em
someone's changed the décor.
