      I second what ***** Hill said. This song is tough to play...tough to sing. But to do both and do them both well is challenging (I've tried...and failed). So kudos on a job very well done. Great cover of an amazing song.

      How long did it take you to learn just the guitar part alone? And then how much longer to get the vocals down while playing?

    Lyrics:
    I would rather not go
    Back to the old house
    I would rather not go
    Back to the old house
    There's too many bad memories
    Too many memories there
    When you cycled by
    Here began all my dreams
    The saddest thing I've ever seen
    And you never knew
    How much I really liked you
    Because I never even told you
    Oh, and I meant to
    Are you still there or have you moved away?
    Or have you moved away?
    I would love to go
    Back to the old house
    But I never will
    I never will
    I never will
