#1.
A
I just moved in my new house today.
D
Moving was hard but I got squared away..
E
When bells starting rings and chains rattled loud,
A
I knew I'd moved in a haunted house.
#2.
A
Still I made up my mind to stay.
D
Nothing was a-gonna drive me away.
E
When I saw something that give me the creeps,
A
Had one big eye and two big feet.
#3.
A
I stood right there and I did the Freeze.
D
It did The Stroll right up to me.
E
Made a noise with its feet that sounded like a drum.
A
Said, "You gonna be here when the morning comes?"
#4.
A
"Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes.
D
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run.
E
I bought this house, now I'm boss,
A
Ain't no haint's gonna run me off."
#5.
A
In my kitchen my stove was a blazing hot.
D
Coffee was a-boiling in the pot.
E
Grease had melted in the pan.
A
I had a hunk of meat in my hand.
#6.
A
From out of space there sat a man,
D
On the hot stove with the pots and pans.
E
"Say that's hot!" I began to shout.
A
He drank the hot coffee right from the spout.
A
He ate the raw meat right from my hand.
D
Drank the hot grease from the frying pan.
E
And said to me "You better run, and don't be here
A
When the morning comes."
#7.
A
"Say, yes, I'll be here when the morning comes.
D
I'll be right here, I ain't gonna run.
E
I bought this house, now I'm boss,
A
Ain't no haint's gonna run me off."
