- The House That Dripped Blood -

Note:  Standard Tuning.
Use barre chords.  The trick to the sound is to remove your index finger - listen to the rhythm for timing.

Intro:

B D A x2

Verse:

B                             D
Look beyond the broken bottles
A                             B
Past the rotting wooden stairs
B                                   D
Root out the wine-dark honeyed center
A                     E
Not everyone can live like millionaires

B D A B

B                             D
Look through the air-thin walls
A                                     B
Tear up the floorboards strip the paint
B                         D
Go over every inch of space
A                          E
With the patience of a saint

Chorus:

E                          B
Grab your hat get your coat
             D   A              B
The cellar door is an open throat


Look past the kitchen cabinets
Go through the chest of drawers
Scrutinize the casements
Rip the varnish off the doors

Dig up the laughing photographs
They're here somewhere or other
Take what you can carry
But let me tell you brother

E                       
Still waters go stagnant
B
Bodies bloat
                  D  A              B
And the cellar door is an open throat

Ontro:

B D A
