[Verse 1]
D I know they say you can't go home again. F#m I just had to come back one last time. G Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam. D A But these hand prints on the front steps are mine. D Up those stairs, in that little back bedroom F#m Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar. G And I bet you didn't know, under that live oak D A My favorite dog is buried in the yard.
[Chorus]
G D I thought if I could touch this place or feel it Em D This brokenness inside me might start healing. D Out here it's like I'm someone else, Bm G I thought that maybe I could find myself D G If I could just come in I swear I'll leave. D Won't take nothing but a memory A D From the house that built me.
[Verse 2]
D Mama cut out pictures of houses for years. F#m From 'Better Homes and Garden' magazines. G Plans were drawn, and concrete poured, G And nail by nail and board by board D A Daddy gave life to mama's dream.
[Chorus]
G I thought if I could touch this place or feel it Em D This brokenness inside me might start healing. G Out here it's like I'm someone else, Bm G I thought that maybe I could find myself. D G If I could just come in I swear I'll leave. D Won't take nothing but a memory A D From the house that built me.
[Bridge]
Bm D You leave home, you move on and you do the best you can. Em G A I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am.
[Chorus]
G D I thought if I could touch this place or feel it Em D This brokenness inside me might start healing. G Out here it's like I'm someone else, Bm G I thought that maybe I could find myself. D G If I could walk around I swear I'll leave. D Won't take nothing but a memory A D From the house that, built me.
