Billy Drover’s dead and gone, there’s nothing left but the bones
F C G
Nature’s working overtime to take down his old home
C G C F
Legs are rotten back is bent and the windows they just stare
F C G C
After fifteen kids it’s hard to believe that there’s no one living there.
[Chorus]
N.C. G
There was smoke from the chimney
Am F C
Youngsters screaming, smell of homemade bread
G Am
Spuds in the cellar and pickles in the pantry
F G
And lots of wood in the shed.
Am F
Try to remember the two-storey house
C G
Nestled down in the cove
Am F
‘Cause if you go back you’ll probably find
C G C
A spot where the alders grow.

C G C G
Clearly I remember now the wooden shingled box
F C G
A long fully loaded clothesline and a hundred hand knit socks
C G C F
A pile of slabs and a choppin’ block, and a swing in the apple tree
F C G C
Shed on the wharf down across the cove and an outhouse over the sea.
[Chorus]
N.C. G
There was smoke from the chimney
Am F C
Youngsters screaming, smell of homemade bread
G Am
Spuds in the cellar and pickles in the pantry
F G
And lots of wood in the shed.
