"House For Everyone"
(Dave Mason)

Intro:

(w/tenor sax, 4X; interrupted by guiro first time)

Am Em
/ / / / / / / /

Verse 1:

C
My bed is made of candy floss
Eb
The house is made of cheese
C
It's lit by lots of glowworms
Eb
If I'm wrong correct me please

[repeat intro, 2X]

Verse 2:

The village is a pop-up book
The people wooden dolls
The roads are made from treacle
Think it's time that I moved on

[repeat intro, 2X]

Bridge:

Dm7 G
My boat is half a walnut shell
Dm7 G
The journey will be long
Dm7 G
So I filled the hold with peppermints
Dm7 G
And creamy pink blancmange

F
I sailed away for fifteen days
F#
It never once got dark
F
And came upon two large houses
F#
Set out in a park

Verse 3:

On the door of one was truth
On the other door was lies
Which one should I enter through
I really must decide

[repeat intro, w/lyrics:]

Am Em
The door marked lies had lots of flowers growing 'round outside
Am Em
But looking closer, noticed it was crumbling inside

Verse 4:

The door marked truth was very plain
But stood up very strong
And when I entered thru its door
I knew I wasn't wrong

Coda:
