B                   E              B
There's a place out on the edge of town sir
        E                      B
Risin' above the factories and fields
           E                        B
Now  ever since I was a child I can remember
     F#7            B
That mansion on the hill
B                  E                B
In the day you can see the children playing
       E                                           B
On a   road that leads to those gates of hardened steel
      E                          B  
Steel gates that completely surround sir
     F#             B
That mansion on the hill
B                   E                B
At night my daddy'd take me and we'd ride
                         E                  B
Through the streets of a town so silent and still
          E                            B
Park on a back road along the highway signs sir
     F#                        B
Look up at the mansion on the hill

SOLO

B              E                   B      
In the summer all the lights would shine
                 E                              B
There'd be music playin  people laughin all the time
          E                                       B
Me and my brother we'd lie down  in the tall cornfields sir
F#7                                   B
Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill
B            E              B 
Tonight down here in Linden Town
            E                              B
I watch the cars rushin' by  home from the mill
          E                   B 
There's a beautiful full moon rising
 F#7                     B          F#7      B
Above the mansion on the hill
