Chords with lyrics

Intro:
D MajorD  D/G

Verse 1:
D MajorD
 A augmentedA corner office was his dream
              G2
More like a prison now it seems
Somewhere on the corporate climb
           D MajorD
He left his warrior behind.
Now he's just a worker at a daily grind,
                G2
Steals his years and numbs his mind.
His strength is fading, his dreams are blind
E minor 7Em7             D MajorD
This is not the life he had in mind.

Interlude:
D MajorD   D/G

Verse 2:
D MajorD
 She lies awake as he's up at night
                   G2
Staring at his screen that tells him lies
That the grass is greener on the other side
    D MajorD
So she's at the gym fighting off the years
To be young again and calm her fears
     G2
That she'll never be enough for him
    E minor 7Em7           D MajorD
Just as a young man catches her eye.

Chorus 1:
               G2          D MajorD
Now they're trapped in their own worlds and their own wars
      AsusAsus        Bm7Bm7
With their cell phones and the closed doors
   G2         D MajorD        Bm7Bm7
It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems.
      G2         E minor 7Em7
But they're all alone together
        D MajorD       D/G
In the house of their dreams.

Verse 3:
           D MajorD
Little sister, she's a sixteen-year-old princess
Lost somewhere between the swing set
    G2
And her brand new crush's chariot awaits
     D MajorD
And big brother's rooms glowing with trophies that shout his name
                  G2
But he'd trade all his high school fame
                  E minor 7Em7
For some backyard catch with his hero again

Chorus 2:
               G2          D MajorD
Now they're trapped in their own worlds and their own wars
      AsusAsus        Bm7Bm7
With their cell phones and the closed doors
   G2         D MajorD        Bm7Bm7
It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems.
      G2         E minor 7Em7
But they're all alone together
        D MajorD       D/G
In the house of their dreams.

Verse 4:
        D MajorD
So now they're all dressed up in Sunday best
Sit up straight just like the rest
     G2                          D MajorD
And they sing the songs of peace and rest that Jesus freely gives
D MajorD
And then their kids look up as daddy stands
And he takes his bride with trembling hands
G2
 Brother kneels at his father's side as princess looks in her mother's eyes
    D/G        F#m7F#m7      E minor 7Em7
Their tears tear down the walls as daddy prays

Chorus 3:
           G2         D MajorD
We're trapped in our own worlds and our own wars
     AsusAsus         Bm7Bm7
With our cell phones and our closed doors
   G2      D MajorD     Bm7Bm7
God, only You can save our family
  G2
And on this Rock, we'll build
D/F#D/F#         E minor 7Em7
On this Rock, we'll build
          D MajorD    D/G
