[Eb] [Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
Well the moon [Cm] is broken [Ab] and the sky [Eb] is cracked Come on up [Cm] to the house
[Eb] The only things [Cm] that you can see [Ab]
is all [Eb] that you lack
Come [Bb] on up [Eb] to the house
All [Cm] your crying [Ab]
don't do [Eb] no good
Come on up [Cm] to the house
[Eb] Come down [Cm] off the cross, [Ab] we can [Eb] use the wood
You gotta come [Bb] on up [Eb] to the house
Come on up to the house
Come on up to the [Cm] house
[Eb] The world is not my home, [Cm] I'm [Ab] just a [Eb]-passing through
You gotta come [Bb] on up [Eb] to the house
There's no light [Cm] in the tunnel, [Ab] no iron [Eb] in the fire
Come on up [Cm] to the house
And [Eb] you're singing [Cm] lead soprano [Ab] in a junk [Eb] man's choir
You gotta come on [Bb] up [Eb] to the house

You gotta come [Bb] on up to [Eb] the house
When you're high [Cm] on top [Ab] of your mountain [Eb] of woe
You gotta come on up to [Cm] the house
Where you [Eb] know you [Cm] should surrender [Ab] but you can't [Eb] let go
You gotta come [Bb] on up to [Eb] the house
You gotta come on up to the house
You gotta come on up to [Cm] the house
[Eb] The world is not my [Cm] home, I'm [Ab] just a-passing [Eb] through

You gotta come [Bb] on up to [Eb] the house
You gotta come [Bb] on up to [Ab] the house
