I [Bb]had the sh*t till it all got smoked

I may be old and I may be bent
But I had the money till it all got spent
I had the money till they made me pay
Then I had the sense to be on my way
I had to stay in the underground
I was in the house when the house burned down
I [Eb]was in the house when the house burned down
I [Gm]met the man with the thorny crown
I [F]helped Him carry his cross through town
I [Gm]was in the house when the [F]house bur[Bb]ned down
I was in the house when the house burned down
I met the man with the thorny crown
I helped Him carry his cross through town
I was in the house when the house burned down
I had the sh*t till it all got smoked
I kept the promise till the vow got broke
I had to drink from the lovin' cup
I stood on the banks till the river rose up
I saw the bride in her wedding gown
I was in the house when the house burned down
