Dave Gunning

House By The Stream

by Dave Gunning
Dave Gunning

Biography:

“There's a song in there somewhere," sings Dave Gunning optimistically on his seventh album We're All Leaving, but the Pictou County, Nova Scotia performer is being far too modest.

Scoring three 2010 East Coast Music Award Nominations for Songwriter, Male Solo Recording and FACTOR Recording of the Year, and recently named as a Finalist in the Great American Song Contest and International Songwriting Competition for his song, Before The Morning Sun (co-written by James Keelaghan), Gunning is on the move.

Dave Gunning - House By The Stream


CAPO: 2nd Fret



INTRO: C F C F C

F
He never worried when a day would end
Am F C
He'd just watch the cars drive by
F
Sitting in the twilight of his life, he felt a friend
Dm C
To the highway running just outside


F
The porch was his rest stop, he was born inside
Am F
If he caught your eye, he'd wave and smile
C F
And I wondered if he knew me from the last time I passed by
Dm C G
A thought that stayed with me for another mile


CHORUS:
F C
And no one stopped only halfway there
Am F G
The old house down by the stream
F C Am
But halfway there was home to him
F
He settled in his worn out easy chair
G Dm
To sit awhile and smile while he dreamed
F C
In his house by the stream


INTERLUDE: C F C F C


F
Those days on the farm had long disappeared
Am F
But his dad's last words, he'd hold onto
C F
While waving at the highway, a life driving past each day
Dm C G
But a smile might have dried a tear


CHORUS:
F C
And no one stopped only halfway there
Am F G
The old house down by the stream
F C Am
But halfway there was home to him
F
He settled in his worn out easy chair
G Dm
To sit awhile and smile while he dreamed
F C
In his house by the stream


INSTRUMENTAL: C Am G Am F C Dm C F G C


F
The trees went first, then gravel trucks rolled in
Am F
A four lane took shape a mile away
C F
Too far to see the highway, life's road dark and empty
Dm C G
A new road opened on this closing day


CHORUS:
F C
And no one stopped only halfway there
Am F G
The old house down by the stream
F C Am
But halfway there was home to him
F
He settled in his worn out easy chair
G Dm
To sit awhile and smile while he dreamed
F C F
In his house by the stream


OUTRO:
Dm
But no longer does he dream
F C F C F
In his house by the stream
