D G D There's a place out on the edge of town, sir, G D Risin' above the factories and the fields G D Now, ever since I was a child, I can remember A7 D That mansion on the hill In the day, you can see the children playing On the road that leads to those gates of hardened steel Steel gates that completely surround, sir The mansion on the hill At night, my daddy'd take me and we'd ride Through the streets of a town so silent and still Park on a back road along the highway side Look up at that mansion on the hill In the summer, all the lights would shine There'd be music playing, people laughing all the time Me and my sister, we'd hide out in the tall cornfields Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill Tonight down here in Linden Town I watch the cars rushing by, far from the mill There's a beautiful full moon rising Above the mansion on the hill | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsA7 D G |
