Home for sale, it's much too large

Too many rooms, big old empty yard
A A E E
Far more space, than the owner needs

Price includes, all memories
E B7 E E
Home for sale, restored like new
E B7 E E
Just a place, two lives outgrew

A change in heart, forces move away

Would like to keep, but just can't stay

Listen close and you might hear the sound

Of what you think is rainfall leaking down

The roof is fine set aside your fears

It's just a few remaining tears

*Note: Organ in original ends most lines with ??A-E?, or Esus4-E?
if you wish to embellish. Recorded guitar does not do this.
Original song modulates up one half-step with last verse,
although you don??t have to do this.
Alt Ending (no modulation):
