Misc Originals – 100 Bc - The Ant Hill (Guitar)

          C
Bought an old house on an ant hill

          Em             D
When life took us by surprise

    C
The world sure looks different

G                      D
Seen through a child's eyes

C
Moved back home in 2018

           G              D
Worked our fingers to the bone

   C
To bring it back to life

   Em                D      F
To make it feel like home

               G         C
And there's an old glass bottle

        F            G
Full of memories and sand

     Em
On a shelf up in the kitchen

      F                 F
Where grandma used to stand

   G              C
To make us Sunday dinners

    F              G
And talk about the game

     Em
This place it may look different now

        F          D      D
But the memories remain

    C
The floor still sags in places

          Em                D
Where she wore the hardwood thin

 C
…Pacing back and forth

          G                  D
Wondering where her boys had been

        C
And she loved that big bay window

                G                D
Where she could watch her garden grow

         C
When the skies opened up

          Em                D
Until the grass gave way to snow

    C
See Grandpa left us in that garden

        Em D
Back in 1994

         C
And his secrets they went with him

        Em          D
Another casualty of war

    C
And all of these years later

        Em
You can feel his presence still

     C
As a new generation

Em             D        F
Make enough to fill

  G         C
A new glass bottle

     F            G
With memories and sand

     Em
On a shelf up in the kitchen

      F                   F
Where grandma used to stand

          G             C
And we're making Sunday dinner

    F                G
And listening to the game

     Em
This place may look different now

        F        D
But the memories remain

          C
Bought an old house on an ant hill

           G              D
Worked our fingers to the bone

   C
To seal in those memories

             C
So it will always…

             G
Feel like home
