Darrell Scott My Father's House written by Darrell Scott
E A B E
He sang a walk on the wildside lasts a lifetime with me
E A E B E
I was born and raised in my father's house
A E B
Can catching rain in the kitchen
A E B E
He said a good song never comes to those who chase
A E B
It comes to those who listen
And I'd listen to him
A E B E
Waking up in the middle of the night
A E B
I know he thought we were sleeping
A E B E
And with an old melody and a guitar in hand
A E B
Somewhere between dreaming and weeping
A B E
He'd sing a walk on the wildside lasts a lifetime with me
A E B E
I grew up quick in my father's house
A E B
Mama she gave him no daughters
F#m E B E
Just a look in the eye of a woman in need
A E B
To be free of a love grown harder
F#m E B E
So she hit the road in a Galaxy Ford
A E B
The one that my daddy had bought her
F#m E B C#m
And she crossed the tracks and never looked back
A E B
She was hummin' a song he had taught her
A B E
She sang a walk on the wildside lasts a lifetime with me
SOLO: A E B E A E B ... F#m E B E A E B
B A E B E
There was this big black trunk in my father's house
A E B
Where he kept all the ledgers he'd write in
F#m E B E
So I broke into it before I moved out
A E B
To see if I could find out more about him
F#m E B E
There were letters written, never sent to my mom
A E B
It's a wonder it never killed him
F#m E B E
And there were lines, and songs, and poetry
A E B
Damn near as good as Hank Williams
(pick strings slowly)
A B E
Sing a walk on the wildside lasts a lifetime with me
REPRISE: A E B E A E B ... F#m E B E A E B (repeat and fade)
E A B E
He sang a walk on the wildside lasts a lifetime with me
