Subject: song, A Mansion on the hill

This is the work of Tim Ausburn. This is my version of a song already in
COWPIE. This version taken from the original 78rpm recording by Hank
Williams, recorded Nov. 7, 1947. Written by Hank Williams and Fred Rose

Key A

(A) TONIGHT DOWN (E7) HERE IN THE (A) VALLEY,

I'M LONESOME AND (D) OH HOW I (A) FEEL,

AS I SIT HERE A- (A7) LONE IN MY (D) CABIN,

I CAN (A) SEE YOUR (E7) MANSION ON THE (A) HILL.



DO YOU RE - CALL WHEN WE PARTED,

THIS STORY TO ME YOU RE - VEALED,

YOU SAID YOU COULD LIVE WITHOUT LOVE DEAR,

IN YOUR LOVELESS MANSION ON THE HILL.



I'VE WAITED ALL THROUGH THE YEARS LOVE,

TO GIVE YOU A HEART TRUE AND REAL,

'CAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE LIV - IN' IN SORROW,

IN YOUR LOVELESS MANSION ON THE HILL.



THE LIGHTS SHINE BRIGHT FROM YOUR WINDOW,

THE TREES STAND SO SILENT AND STILL,

I KNOW YOU'RE ALONE WITH YOUR PRIDE DEAR,

IN YOUR LOVELESS MANSION ON THE HILL.
