House Down The Block

 
              C 
The house my family lives in just down the block 
 
F 
Many times I passed there but I never stopped 
 
C                                 G7 
I go on all alone wishing I could be 
 
C             F              G7          C 
In that house down the block with my family 
 
 
 
When we meet upon the street I just bow my head 
 
F 
They don't know how often I wish that I was dead 
 
C                                                   G7 
To our name I brought the shame but still I long to be 
 
C             F              G7          C 
In that house down the block with my family 
 
 
 
When Gabriel blows his trumpet and time will be no more 
 
F 
Then memories fade my daddy's faith I'll walk up to the door 
 
C                                                          G7 
The tears that fall won't start at all and God will let me be 
 
C             F              G7          C 
In that house down the block with my family
