Verse 1:
C                     G
House up in Clearlake
C                    G
Where I used to live
C                              G
Picked the lock on the front door
C                G
And felt it give
C                                        G
Touch nothing, move nothing, stand still
C                           G
Keep my ears open for cars
C                                 G
See how the people here live now
F                                   G
Hope that they're better at it than I was

Chorus:
          C  G Am
I used to live here
F         Am G C     G
I used to live here
          C  G Am
I used to live here
F              G
I used to live here

Verse 2:
C                         G
Pictures up on the mantle
C             G
Nobody I know
  C                         G
I stand by the tiny furnace
C                           G
Where the long shadows grow
C                                 G
Living room to bedroom to kitchen
C                 G
Familiar and warm
C                                       G
Hours spent starving within these walls
F                    G
Sounds of a distant storm


Chorus:
          C  G Am
I used to live here
F         Am G C     G
I used to live here
          C  G Am
I used to live here
G          F   C
I used to live here


Bridge:
Em                               Am
Fight through the ghosts in the hallway
Em         Am
Duck and weave
Em                              Am
Stand by the door with my eyes closed
          F         G    G
When it's time to leave

Verse 3:
C                        G
Steal home before sunset
C                  G
Cover up my tracks
C                              G
Drive home with old dreams at play in my mind
C                       G
And the wind at my back
C                                G
Break the lock on my own garden gate
C                          G
When I get home after dark
C                               G
Sit looking up at the stars outside
      F                        G
Like teeth in the mouth of a shark


Chorus:
          C  G Am
I used to live here
F         Am G C     G
I used to live here
          C  G Am
I used to live here
G          F    C
I used to live here
