Just keep strumming D MajorD right into the first verse.

D MajorD
I know they say you cant go home again
F#F#
I just had to come back one last time
G+G
Maam I know you don’t know me from Adam
A augmentedA
But these handprints on the front steps are mine


D MajorD
Up those stairs in that little back bedroom
F#F#
Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar
G+G
I bet you didn’t know under that live oak
A augmentedA
My favorite dog is buried in the yard


D MajorD
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
D MajorD
This brokenness inside me might start healing
G+G
Out here its like Im someone else
G+G
I thought that maybe I could find myself
G+G
If I could just come in I swear Ill leave
D MajorD
Wont take nothing but a memory
D MajorD
From the house that built me

D MajorD
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years
F#F#
From Better Homes and Gardens magazine
G+G
Plans were drawn and concrete poured
G+G
Nail by nail and board by board
A augmentedA
Daddy gave life to mamas dream

D MajorD
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
D MajorD
This brokenness inside me might start healing
G+G
Out here its like Im someone else
G+G
I thought that maybe I could find myself
G+G
If I could just come in I swear Ill leave
D MajorD
Won’t take nothing but a memory
D MajorD
From the house that built me


D MajorD
You leave home and you move on and you do the best you can
A augmentedA
I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am


D MajorD
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
D MajorD
This brokenness inside me might start healing
G+G
Out here its like Im someone else
G+G
I thought that maybe I could find myself
G+G
If I could walk around I swear Ill leave
D MajorD
Wont take nothing but a memory
D MajorD
