THERE'S AN OLD, OLD HOUSE THAT ONCE WAS A MANSION
ON A HILL OVERLOOKIN' THE TOWN 
BUT TIME'S LEFT A WRECKAGE WHERE ONCE THERE WAS BEAUTY 
AND SOON THE OLD HOUSE WILL TUMBLE DOWN 
CHS: 
WHEN THE LEAVES START TO FALL IN AUTUMN 
AND THE RAIN STARTS TO DRIP FROM THE TREES 
THERE'S AN OLD, OLD MAN WHO WALKS IN THE GARDEN 
AND HIS HEAD IS BOWED IN MEMORY. 
WELL THEY SAY HE BUILT THE MANSION 
FOR THE LOVE OF HIS WOMAN 
AND THEY PLANNED TO BE MARRIED IN THE FALL 
BUT HER LOVE DID WITHER IN THE LAST DAYS OF SUMMER
AND THE HOUSE STOOD EMPTY AFTER ALL. 
CHS: 
WHEN THE LEAVES START TO FALL IN AUTUMN 
AND THE RAIN STARTS TO DRIP FROM THE TREES 
THERE'S AN OLD, OLD MAN WHO WALKS IN THE GARDEN 
AND HIS HEAD IS BOWED IN MEMORY
