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

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


Chorus:
          C majorC  G+G A minorAm
I used to live here

I used to live here


Bridge:
E minorEm                               A minorAm
Fight through the ghosts in the hallway
E minorEm         A minorAm
Duck and weave
E minorEm                              A minorAm
Stand by the door with my eyes closed
          FF         G+G    G+G
When it's time to leave


Verse 3:
C majorC                        G+G
Steal home before sunset
C majorC                  G+G
Cover up my tracks
C majorC                              G+G
Drive home with old dreams at play in my mind
C majorC                       G+G
And the wind at my back
C majorC                                G+G

Break the lock on my own garden gate
C majorC                          G+G
When I get home after dark
C majorC                               G+G
Sit looking up at the stars outside
      FF                        G+G
Like teeth in the mouth of a shark


Chorus:
          C majorC  G+G A minorAm
I used to live here
FF         A minorAm G+G C majorC     G+G
I used to live here
          C majorC  G+G A minorAm
I used to live here
G+G          FF    C majorC
I used to live here

C majorC G+G A minorAm FF A minorAm G+G C majorC G+G
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF FF G+G C majorC
