House Across The Bay
Written by Dean Dillon, Bubba Strait & George Strait
Recorded by George Strait

Intro.:  |(Em) |(A) |(D) |(D) |

(Em)Walkin' down this lonely stretch of beach, she and I walked (D)down a thousand times
I (Em)just can force myself to give her up like all the things (D) she left behind
(Em)Gone are the days, when I'd way up with her warm bod-(A)y next to mine

(Chorus)
(G) It gets cold here (A)in the winter time
(D) And my mind drifts away (G) to that house across the bay (Em) (A)
(G) A long talk and a (A)glass of wine (D) and we'd love the night away (G)
But that was yesterday (Em) (A) in that house across the (D)bay

Inst.:  --- |(Em) |(A) |(D) 

Her (Em)laughter was contagious, her walk, her talk, her smile lit up (D) every room
They say things (Em)happen for a reason, but I can't find one good reason, why she's (D) gone so soon
(Em)Life just seems to hang on every thought and everything (Em/F#) we (A)used to be

(Chorus)
(G) It gets cold here (A)in the winter time
(D) And my mind drifts away (G) to that house across the bay (Em) (A)
(G) A long talk and a (A)glass of wine (D) and we'd love the night away (G)
But that was yesterday (Em) (A) in that house across the (D)bay

(Tag)
There was sunshine everyday (Em) and we'd love the night away (A) ---
In that house across the (D)bay --- |(Em) |(A) |(D) -----
