[Verse 1]
GThat picture hanging on the wall
Was Cpainted by a Gfriend
He gave it to me all Bmdown and out, Cwhen he owed me Dten
GIt doesn't look like much I guess
But it's Call that's left of Ghim
And it sure is nice from Bmright over here,
when the Clight's a little Ddim
[Chorus]
CStep inside this house girl
And I'll sing for you a Gsong
I'll tell you bout just where BmI've been
Cit shouldn't take too Dlong
CI'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might Gsay
It couldn't be more than ten Bmdollars worth
Cthey brighten up my Dday
[Verse 2]
GThis book of poems was given me
By a Cgirl I used to Gknow
I guess I read it front to Bmback
CFifty times or Dso
GIt's all about the good life
And stayin' at Cease with the Gworld
It's funny how I Bmlove that book
And I Cnever loved that Dgirl
[Chorus]
CStep inside this house girl
And I'll sing for you a Gsong
I'll tell you bout just where BmI've been
Cit shouldn't take too Dlong
CI'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might Gsay
It couldn't be more than ten Bmdollars worth
Cthey brighten up my Dday
[Verse 3]
GNow you hold this piece of glass
Up to the light that's Cshinin' through the Gdoor
It's a prism glass I found it on the Bmroad
Can't you Csee that tiny Drainbow
GIt's not really a prism I guess
Its just kind of Cbroke a funny Gway
I was on my way through BmHouston
And I was Cheaded for DL.A.
[Chorus]
CStep inside this house girl
And I'll sing for you a Gsong
I'll tell you bout just where BmI've been
Cit shouldn't take too Dlong
CI'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might Gsay
It couldn't be more than ten Bmdollars worth
Cthey brighten up my Dday
[Verse 4]
GThis guitar was given me
By Cold man Thomas GGray
It's not too much to look Bmat
But I Cplay it every Dday
GIt's been across this country
CFour or five times I Gguess
Between me and old man BmTom
It Cnever got much Drest
[Chorus]
CStep inside this house girl
And I'll sing for you a Gsong
I'll tell you bout just where BmI've been
Cit shouldn't take too Dlong
CI'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might Gsay
It couldn't be more than ten Bmdollars worth
Cthey brighten up my Dday
[Verse 5]
GWell that's just about all I own
All I Ccare to I Gguess
Except this pair of boots Bmmaybe
And that Cfunny yellow Dvest
GAnd that leather jacket and that leather bag
And that Chat hangin' on the Gwall
Just so it's not too much to Bmcarry babe
Could I Csee you again next DFall
[Chorus]
CStep inside this house girl
And I'll sing for you a Gsong
I'll tell you bout just where BmI've been
Cit shouldn't take too Dlong
CI'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might Gsay
It couldn't be more than ten Bmdollars worth
Cthey brighten up my Dday
