Hi there! I just watched the Grammy's and I'm in
love with this song!! It's so pretty! This version is
a bit easier to play for beginners than the others.
Here's a link for the song or go buy it on itunes!!

**It's been suggested that the F's in the chorus are Fmaj7's [x33210].
(Because I can't barre I play Fmaj7's for all the F's and it sounds
good that way too.)**

[Intro]
C G F C
C G C
[Verse]
C
I know they say, you can't go home again
Em
I just had to come back one last time
F
Ma'am I know, you don't know me from Adam
C G
But these hand prints on the front steps are mine
C
Up those stairs, in that little back bedroom
Em
Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar
F
And I bet you didn't know, under that live oak
C G
My favorite dog is buried in the yard
[Chorus]
F C
I thought if I could touch this place, or feel it
Dm C
This brokenness inside me might start healin'
F
Out here it's like I'm someone else,
Am F
I thought that maybe I could find myself
C F
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
C
Won't take nothin' but a memory
G C
From the house that... built me
[Verse]
C
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years
Em
From "Better Homes and Garden" magazine
F
Plans were drawn and concrete poured and
F
Nail by nail and board by board
C G
Daddy gave life to Mama's dream
[Chorus]
F C
I thought if I could touch this place, or feel it
Dm C
This brokenness inside me might start healin'
F
Out here it's like I'm someone else,
Am F
I thought that maybe I could find myself
C F
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
C
Won't take nothin' but a memory
G C
From the house that... built me
[Bridge]
Am C
You leave home and you move on and you do the best you can
Dm F G
I got lost in this old world and forgot, who I am
[Chorus]
F C
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
Dm C
This brokenness inside me might start healing
F
Out here it's like I'm someone else
Am F
I thought that maybe I could find myself
C F
If I could walk around I swear I'll leave
C
Won't take nothin' but a memory
G F C Dm G C -once
From the house that.... built me
