| This Old House 	            |
| Words and Music by Loretta Lynn   |
| Arranged by Jack White	    |
| Tabbed by Patrick Ferris          |  
 -----------------------------------

The acoustic guitar, left channel, is playing fifth chords, but the song is disappointing to play alone without
major chords. I've tabbed the acoustic guitar part as it's played, but also defined the major bar chords that
give the song a better feel.

INTRO:
One, two, three

VERSE 1:
D5
Oh, if this old house could talk
       A5
What a story it would tell

It would tell about the good times
        G5           D5
And the bad times as well

It would tell about the love
               A5
That lived and died inside these walls

And the sound of little footsteps
        G5              D5
Runnin' up and down the hall

Eb5

VERSE 2:
Eb5
Oh, if this old house could talk
         Bb5
It would break my heart in two

I couldn't stand to be reminded
           Ab5               Eb5
Of all the things we used to do

There's no love in this old house no more
     Bb5     
So I got it up for sale

Why, if this old house could talk
       Ab5            Eb5
What a story it would tell

E5

VERSE 3:
E5
Oh, if this old house could talk
  B5
I know what it would say

I'm as lonesome as you are
                A5         E5
And I feel more empty everyday

Well, I even miss the babies
              B5
That built me up to feel this way

Why, if this old house could talk
        A5                 E5
Lord, I know what it would say

F5

VERSE 4:
F5
If this old house could talk
       C5
What a story it would tell

We built this home together
         Bb5                F5
And with love we drove each nail

Take me in your arms and hold me
             C5
'Cause we've been apart too long

Why if this old house could talk
             Bb5  >         F5
All it would say is welcome home
