my clumsy notation for the intro and instrumentals:

[G]It's a churchyard auction, a sight to s[G]ee[-],[G/F#] [-]
where the [Em]eyes are big, and the odds are lean.
The p[C]ockets all are empty, the [Cmaj7]chances all are gone,
but there's a f[G]ree bet yet on a house of st[G]on[-]e,[G/F#] [-] [Em]
C - C/B - Am7 F#* G
mmm- mmm- mmm a house of stone.
Now s[G]ome may sing sounds of halle[G]lu[-]ja[G/F#]h[-]
and d[Em]ream about a mansion of gold
but to e[C]ach be true, and to[Cmaj7] each be known
My dr[G]eams all are resting on a house of st[G]on[-]e,[G/F#] [-] [Em]
C - C/B - Am7 F#* G
mmm- mmm- mmm a house of stone.

Say that d[G]evil's a sly one with many kind fri[G]en[-]ds[G/F#].[-]
His r[Em]iches are boundless, they know no end.
D[C]own in the valley, the [Cmaj7]shadow's grown,
but in the l[G]ight of Calvary, sits a house of st[G]on[-]e,[G/F#] [-] [Em]
C - C/B - Am7 F#* G
mmm- mmm- mmm a house of stone.
