Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 
              C 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more 
          G7 
Ain't got time to fix the shingles 
          C 
Ain't got time to fix the floor 
          F 
Ain't got time to oil the hinges 
       C 
Nor to mend the window pane 
              G7 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 
                                C 
I'm a-getting ready to meet the saints 

C 
This ole house once knew my children 
C7       F 
This ole house once knew my wife 
         G7 
This ole house was home and comfort 
      C          F         C 
As we fought the storms of life 

This ole house once rang with laughter 
C7       F 
This ole house heard many shouts 
        G7 
Now she trembles in the darkness 
                         C 
When the lightning walks about 

              F 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 
              C 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more 
          G7 
Ain't got time to fix the shingles 
          C 
Ain't got time to fix the floor 
          F 
Ain't got time to oil the hinges 
       C 
Nor to mend the window pane 
              G7 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 
                                C 
I'm a-getting ready to meet the saints 

This ole hound dog lies a-sleeping 
He don't know I'm gonna leave 
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace 
And he'd sit there and howl and grieve 
But my hunting days are over 
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more 
Gabriel done brought in my chariot 
When the wind blew down the door 

F 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 
              C 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more 
          G7 
Ain't got time to fix the shingles 
          C 
Ain't got time to fix the floor 
          F 
Ain't got time to oil the hinges 
       C 
Nor to mend the window pane 
              G7 
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 
                                C 
I'm a-getting ready to meet the saints
