(Intro.)
|(G) / / / |(G) / / / |

(Verse 1)
(G) Saw it as I was driving by
An (Em)old man tapping in a for sale sign
So I (C) pulled into the gravel drive
And said (D) "whatcha want for it?"
Well, if ya (G) got time I can show you round
It's (Em)got good bones and solid ground
I said (C)�hsold" so he pulled a bottle out
(D) And he started pouring
He (C)said as he shed a tear
Son you're gonna (D)love it here

(Chorus)
(C) I thought I'd be here til I died
But the (D) money ran out before my time
With-(G)out her here it's (D/F#)too much by my-(Em)-self
If it's (C) as good to you as it was to me
Then you'll (D) fill this house full of memories
And (G)end up with more (D/F#)stories than you can tell (Em)
And if you're lucky as hell (C)
It'll be a (D)damn hard acre to sell |(G) / / / |(G) / / / |

(Verse 2)
(G) Buddy, you ain't seen a view
Til the (Em)woman you love's holding onto you
(C)Kids running round the front yard together
She (D)leans in and whispers I could do this forever

(Chorus)
(C) I thought I'd be here til I died
But the (D) money ran out before my time
With-(G)out her here it's (D/F#)too much by my-(Em)-self
If it's as (C) good to you as it was to me
Then you'll (D) fill this house full of memories
And (G)end up with more (D/F#)stories than you can tell (Em)
(Em) And if you're (D)lucky as (C)hell
It'll be a (D)damn hard acre to sell (G)

(Bridge)
(Em) It ain't easy, yeah it's bittersweet
(D) Handing somebody else the keys
But (C)I can tell (G)
That you're gonna (D)treat it well

(Out-Chorus)
(C) I thought I'd be here til I died
But the (D) money ran out before my time
With-(G)out her here it's (D/F#)too much by my-(Em)-self
If it's as (C) good to you as it was to me
Then you'll (D) fill this house full of memories
And (G)end up with more (D/F#)stories than you can tell (Em)
And if you're lucky as (C)hell
It'll be a (D)damn hard acre to sell
(G) It'll be a (C)damn hard (D)acre to sell (G) - - - - -
