The House That Built Me Ukulele by Miranda Lambert

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Intro:
F C Bb F
F C F

Verse:
      F
I know they say, you can't go home again
Am
 I just had to come back one last time
Bb
Ma'am I know, you don't know me from Adam
     F                 C
But these handprints on the front steps are mine
     F
Up those stairs, in that little back bedroom
      Am
Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar
   Bb
And I bet you didn't know, under that live oak
  F               C
My favorite dog is buried in the yard

Chorus:
 Bb                    F
I thought if I could touch this place, or feel it
   Gm                F
This brokenness inside me might start healin'
  Bb
Out here it's like I'm someone else,
 Dm                Bb
I thought that maybe I could find myself
  F                 Bb
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
             F
Won't take nothin' but a memory
     C         F
From the house that... built me

Verse:
   F
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years
   Am
From "Better Homes and Garden" magazine
      Bb
Plans were drawn and concrete poured and
Bb
Nail by nail and board by board
F                C
 Daddy gave life to Mama's dream

Chorus:
 Bb                    F
I thought if I could touch this place, or feel it
   Gm                F
This brokenness inside me might start healin'
  Bb
Out here it's like I'm someone else,
 Dm                Bb
I thought that maybe I could find myself
  F                 Bb
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
             F
Won't take nothin' but a memory
     C         F
From the house that... built me

Bridge:
  Dm                 F
You leave home and you move on and you do the best you can
   Gm              Bb     C
I got lost in this old world and forgot, who I am

Chorus/Outro:
 Bb                   F
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
   Gm                F
This brokenness inside me might start healing
  Bb
Out here it's like I'm someone else
 Dm                Bb
I thought that maybe I could find myself
  F                Bb
If I could walk around I swear I'll leave
             F
Won't take nothin' but a memory
     C          Bb  F Gm C F
From the house that.... built me
