Big Man In A Big House Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F][G][F]

[Verse 1]
[G]When he was a kid,
he [C]dreamed about a big house [G]on a hill
Far, far away from [C]shantytown
and [D]poverty
He was [G]only sixteen, a [C]kid full of dreams
when he [G]ran away
And left his [C]mama a note
sayin' [D]you'll be proud
of me [G]someday
When I'm [C]a big man in a[G] big house
With [C]acres and acres of [G]ground
I'll be [C]a big man in a b[G]ig house
With a [C]big high fence all [G]around
A [C]big high fence all [G]around
Well he settled down in a [C]great big town
and he [G]worked so hard.
But the harder he'd work,
the [C]more he'd spend, [D]it seems.
All his [G]newfound friends made [C]fun of him
and said, [G]come along,
and we'll [C]show you
how you can [D]fulfill all your [G]dream[Eb]s.
He was [Ab]just 21
when a [Db]loaded gun was [Ab]his downfall.
Or he joined the gang
and done some [Db]things he shouldn't [Eb]do
Then one [Ab]rainy night the po[Db]lice came by
and they [Ab]took him in
And the [Db]judge said,
there's a [Eb]place for kids like [Ab]you
Now he's [Db]a big man in a bi[Ab]g house
with [Db]acres and acres of [Ab]ground
Yes, he's [Db]a big man in a big[Ab] house
With a [Db]big high fence all [Ab]around
A [Db]big high fence all around
