(Capo at 2nd. Fret)
Intro:
[Chorus]
If these old walls could talk, I d be a sad man
She d left me long ago, If she knew the things I did back then
No, they ain t said a word, Stood silent through it all
I d be a lonely man, If these old walls could talk
This old house of ours, It s made of stone but it s built on sand
And these four walls they are my best friends
They re keepin all my past locked deep in-side
No one will ever know, All those things I did so long ago
-
I ve been runnin tryin to hide from yesterday
But there s just no need, I know my secrets safe
Repeat Chorus:
They ve stood every storm , Those long cold winter nights
They kept us warm, Holdin back the rain
Not even the winds of change, Could blow down
Yeah, we re on solid ground
Repeat Chorus:
Lead Ride: (Steel) - - -
(Fiddle) - - -
They ve stood the test of time, Never let me down
I ve put it all behind me, They remind me
I m on shaky gro - und
(Stop)
They won t let me forget
Repeat Chorus:
(Stop)
Yeah, I d be a lonely man, If these old walls could talk
I d be a sad man, She d left me long ago
If she only knew all those things I did back then
