House for Sale Lyrics

INTRO: C F G C F G C
There's a house for sale on a dead-end street
With a backyard view of a factory
The walls are strong like solid stone
And for twenty years it's been our home
I worked my life, fought on the line
Passed the gate ten thousand times
But now we're here and that the work is done
They're gonna cut their losses one by one
I don't wanna be the last one standing
To see it all fall down
'Cause I know where this is going
And I don't wanna be around when it's gone
There's a meeting at the town hall tonight
More bad news from the suit and tie
They say it's not what they want, but what they have to do
But it doesn't make much for me and you
Don't be the one who leaves me
To look you in the eyes
And say it's time for us to be moving
So we can leave it all behind when we're gone
INSTRUMENTAL: Dm C Dm C Dm F G C
Our 'House For Sale' burned through the night
From god's own hand came a lightning strike
We signed the cross in the fire's heat
And we said goodbye to that dead-end street
