I just moved in my new house today 

                          C 
Moving was hard but I got squared away 

                                         D7 
Bells started ringing and chains rattled loud 

                           G 
I knew I'd done moved in a haunted house 



Still I made up my mind to stay 

                             C 
Nothing was a gonna drive me away 

                                       D7 
When I seen something that gave me the creeps 

                              G 
Had a one big eye and two big feet 



I stood right still and I did the freeze 

                                   C 
He did that ol’ stroll right up to me 

                      D7 
Made a noise with his feet 
  
                                               G 
Said boy you’d better not be here when morning comes 



Yes I'm gonna be here when morning comes 

                                 C 
I'll be right here I ain't gonna run 

                                D7 
I bought this old house and I'm boss 

                            G 
Ain't no haunt gonna run me off  
     


Well in my kitchen the stove was a blazing hot 

                                C 
Coffee was a boiling in the old pot 

                               D7 
Oh the grease had melted in my pan 

                                G 
Had a hunk of meat right in his hand 



From out of space there stood a man 

                                   C 
On the hot stove were the pots and pans 

                         D7 
Oh let me tell right now son 

                                        G 
You better not hang around when morning comes 


  
Jerry Lee Lewis will be here when the morning comes 

                                 C 
I'll be right here I ain't gonna run 

                                    D7 
I bought this old house and now I'm boss 

                            G 
Ain't no haunt gonna run me off
