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