[D] [G] [D] [A]
[D] [G] [D]
[G] Familiar highways, [D] line with leaves [A] turn brown
[D] Making my [G] way [Bm] back into my [D] hometown
Funny how this [G] all looks different, [D] but it feels the [A] same
[D] Like how life never [G] stops changing, [D] but some things never [A] change
[D] So fill your plate and fill your drink, and fill this house with family
The kind of love that all these years can't wash away
[A]
[G] Cause the older [D] that I get, I see that life is short and bittersweet
Thank God for this Thanksgiving day
[G] [D]
[G] Watching [D]
[A] [D] football, watching [A] families grow
The [D] old kids' table, all have kids [Bm] of their [A] own
[D] Starting to see my grandfather in my [A] nephew's eyes
[Bm] Mom still can't talk about him [D] and I'd [A] almost cry
[G] So fill your [D] plate and fill your [A] drink, and fill this [D] house with family
The kind of love a thousand miles can't wash [A] away
[Bm] Cause the older that I [D] get, I [A] see that [F#] life is [D] short and bittersweet

And let the [D] leftover year just [A] wash [D] away
[A]
Cause we [G] made it [D] through, I do [A] believe, [A#] the longest year [Bm] in [G] history
Thank God [D] that it's Thanksgiving day
