It Doesn't Take A House To Fall On Me

The "D" chord in the verse alternates between "D" and "D/A"

|D        |         |         |         ||:D         |            |          |

    When the moon hangs heavy on the land             When my heart hangs

|             |         |            |G/B               |A            |D          |
 heavy on your memory my love  I will sing the words you may not under-stand

|              |              |                 |            |             |
        That it doesn't take a boat to cross the desert             That it

|              |                 |          |           |          |               |
 doesn't take a stone to swim the sea            And for all of the phone calls you

 doesn't take a house to fall   it doesn't take a house to fall on me

2.Now for all of my time in seventh heaven
  And for all of your attention paid to me
  And for all of the vows that we never exchanged
  I just thank the Lord that I woke up to see
  That it doesn't take the earth to move a mountain
  That it doesn't take a lock to hold a key
  And for all of the letters that I only wrote
  Well it doesn't take a house to fall on me

3.When the starling strike a note at daybreak
  When the blackbird sings a reverie
  And in all of the dreams I imagine my love
  That they whisper words you never spoke to me
  That it doesn't take a cloud to build a castle
  That it doesn't take a jury to agree
  That unless you're confined to a hospital bed
  Then it doesn't take a house to fall on me
