The Poor House
B. Thornton
The Boxmasters
INTRO: G
G Em
We know it's sparklin' ahead, honey I thought I'd give a call
C D
Lookin' for tomorrow to be sunny in the midst of this snowfall
G Em
I've let you and the kids down way too long now
C D
I'm hopin' to turn our life around if I can just figure out how
CHORUS:
G
I'm workin' on a plan to save our home
C D
Keep us out of the poor house, pay off those loans
G
I'm workin' on a plan to save our home
C D G
Keep us out of the poor house, and I won't do it stoned
I'll sit with the grannies at the nickel machines and pull handles 'til my hands are blue
I'll do just about anything to bring a future home to you
I put down the pails of liquor, you know I tried to keep a job
I just think this'll be quicker if I can win a little off the mob
CHORUS:
I'm workin' on a plan, to save our home
Keep us out of the poor house, pay off those loans
I'm workin' on a plan to save our home
Keep us out of the poor house, now that i'm not stoned
(KEY CHANGE TO A)
A Fm
Well my plan didn't work exactly honey but I do have a little good news
D E
I'm not bringin' home any money but I didn't turn back to booze
A Fm
I guess it's back to the drawin' board, ideas are startin' to brew
D E
I'm bringin' back all I can afford and that's love to the kids and you
CHORUS:
A
I'm workin' on a plan to save our home
D E
Keep us out of the poor house, pay off those loans
A
I'm workin' on a plan to save our home
D E A
Keep us out of the poor house, and build a house of stone
A
Huh, uh-huh-huh
D E
Uh-huh-huh, huh-huh
A
Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh
D E A
Uh-huh-huh, huh-huh
