Warren William Zevon (January 24, 1947 - September 7, 2003) was an American rock singer-songwriter and musician noted for including his unique and sometimes sardonic opinions of life in his musical lyrics, composing songs that were sometimes humorous and often had political or historical themes.
Zevon's work has often been praised by well-known musicians, including Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and Neil Young. His best-known compositions include "Werewolves of London"

Intro : Bb
Bb I had the shit till it all got smoked Cm I kept the promise till the vow got broke Cm I had to drink from the lovin' cup Bb I stood on the banks till the river rose up Eb I saw the bride in her wedding gown GmFBb I was in the house when the house burned down
I may be old and I may be bent But I had the money till it all got spent I had the money till they made me pay Then I had the sense to be on my way I had to stay in the underground I was in the house when the house burned down
Eb I was in the house when the house burned down Gm I met the man with the thorny crown F I helped Him carry his cross through town GmFBb I was in the house when the house burned down
I was in the house when the house burned down I met the man with the thorny crown I helped Him carry his cross through town I was in the house when the house burned down
I had the shit till it all got smoked I kept the promise till the vow got broke I had to drink from the lovin' cup I stood on the banks till the river rose up I saw the bride in her wedding gown I was in the house when the house burned down
