[D]
[G]
[D] Corner office was his dream
More like a prison now it [G] seems
Somewhere on the corporate line
He left his warrior [Dm] behind
Now he's just a worker [D] at a daily grind
Steals his years and numbs [G] his mind
His strength is fading, his dreams [A] are blind
[Bm] This is not the [C#] life he had [D] in mind
She
[G]
[D] lies awake as he's up all night
Staring at a screen that tells [G] him lies
That the grass is greener on the other side
[Gm]
[D] So she's at the gym fighting off the years
To be young again [A] and calm her fears
[G] That she'll never be enough for him
Just [Em] as a young man catches [D] her eye
Now they're trapped in [G] their own worlds
In [D] their own wars with [A] their cell phones
And [Bm] their closed doors
[G] It's funny how quiet [D] and peaceful that [Bm] it seems
[G] But they're all alone together
In the house of [D] their dreams
[G]
Little sister she's [D] a sixteen year old princess
Lost somewhere between the swing set
[G] And a brand new crush's chariot awaits
In [D] big brother's rooms glowing with trophies
That shout his name
But he'd [A] trade all [D] his high school [G] fame
For some backyard cats with his [Em] hero again
But they're trapped in [G] their own worlds
[D] In their own wars with [A] their cell phones
And [Bm] their closed doors
[G] It's funny how quiet [D] and peaceful that [Bm] it seems
[G] But they're all alone together
[Em] In the house of [D] their dreams
[A] [D]
[G]
[D] See now they're all dressed up in Sunday best
Sit up straight just like the rest
[G] And sing the songs of peace and rest
That Jesus [Dm] freely gives
[D]
And then their kids look up as daddy stands
And he takes his bride with trembling hands
[G] Brother kneels at his father's side
Princess looks in her mother's eyes
[D] Their tears tear down the walls as [Em] daddy prays
We're trapped [G] in our own worlds
In our own wars [D] with our cell phones
[Bm] And our closed doors
[G] God only you [Bm] can save our family
And [G] on this [D] rock we'll build
On this rock we'll build
[Em]
The [Bm] house [D] of our dreams
[A]
[G] [Em] [G]
