If These Old Walls Could Talk

Kevin Fowler


Tom: A

(chorus)       A 
If these old walls could talk 
           E 
I'd be a sad man 
                 D 
She'd left me long ago 
                   A                E 
If she knew the things I did back then 
                 A 
No, they ain't said a word 
                 E 
Stood silent through it all 
             D         E 
I'd be a lonely man 
                A 
If these old walls could talk 
 
            D            E 
This old house of ours 
                              A            D 
It's made of stone but it's built on sand 
                              A 
And these four walls they are my best friends 
           D                              E  
They're keepin' all my past locked deep inside 
             D          E 
No one will ever know 
                            A       D 
All those things I did so long ago 
                          A         E    D 
I keep runnin' tryin' to hide from yesterday 
               
But there's just no need 
                    E 
I know my secret's safe 
 
(repeat chorus) 
D 
They've stood the test of time 
E 
Never let me down 
             D                    
I've put it all behind me  
 A              E 
They remind me 
 
I'm on shaky ground 
       
They won't let me forget 
 
(repeat chorus) 
A               D          E 
Yea, I'd be a lonely man 
               A 
If these old walls could talk 
          E 
I'd be a sad man 
                D 
She'd left me long ago 
                              E                A 
If she only knew all those things I did back then
