There's a place out on the edge of town sir
E B
Risin' above the factories and fields
E B
Now ever since I was a child I can remember
F#7 B
That mansion on the hill
B E B
In the day you can see the children playing
E B
On a road that leads to those gates of hardened steel
E B
Steel gates that completely surround sir
F# B
That mansion on the hill
B E B
At night my daddy'd take me and we'd ride
E B
Through the streets of a town so silent and still
E B
Park on a back road along the highway signs sir
F# B
Look up at the mansion on the hill
SOLO
B E B
In the summer all the lights would shine
E B
There'd be music playin people laughin all the time
E B
Me and my brother we'd lie down in the tall cornfields sir
F#7 B
Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill
B E B
Tonight down here in Linden Town
E B
I watch the cars rushin' by home from the mill
E B
There's a beautiful full moon rising
F#7 B F#7 B
Above the mansion on the hill
