Standard (EADGBE)

I can see from my window in the house upon the hill

 That you took with live with someone you don’t love at will

 You gave up the love I offered for a lonely wasted year

 Living in a mansion built with tears

Chorus

 With a doorway made of heartaches and pain in every room

 With teardrops in the hallway as you wander in your gloom

 Come on down, come on down, come on down

A little bird can only fly as high as the feathers on her wings

Your little bird has all gone up and (?)

But the golden life you wanted is not what it appears

Living in a mansion built with tears

Chorus
