(Intro.)

(Verse)
I bet you're (G)up there, makin' new friends
I'm pretty (D)sure you're lovin' every minute
If there's a (Em)golden pond full of fish
I bet you (C)already caught everything in it
I bet you're (G)making everybody laugh with your jokes
I know you're (D)holding nothing but the best kind of hope
Shining a (Em)light up there with a big old smile, (C) yeah, and meanwhile

(Chorus)
Down (G)home, oh, you know mama's still cooking
Them down (D)home grits, I promise I'm working
With this gui-(Em)tar about as hard as I can
I met a (C)girl, bought a house, I put a nice little payment
Down (G)homе is still where my heart is
This down (D)homе kid is just how you left him
I still (Em)hate that you're gone, I wish you were here
But I hope I'm (C)making you proud
'Cause I know you're up there looking down (G)home (D)

(Verse)
There ain't a (G)day down here that goes by
That I don't (D)climb up in my F-150
On a (Em)backroad bumping Charley Pride
Yeah, every (C)song keeps you right here with me
I got a (G)cdaughter now I really wish you'd have met
Yeah she's (D)walking now but I know you see every step
I wear the (Em)number 15 every chance I get
So when you're (C)looking through the clouds, daddy, you can bet
 
(Chorus)
That down (G)home, oh, you know mama's still cooking
Them down (D)home grits, I promise I'm working
With this gui-(Em)tar about as hard as I can
I met a (C)girl, bought a house, I put a nice little payment
Down (G)homе is still where my heart is
This down (D)homе kid is just how you left him
I still (Em)hate that you're gone, I wish you were here
But I hope I'm (C)making you proud
'Cause I know you're up there looking down (G)home

(Break)
Daddy, don't you (G)worry, aw no
'Cause (D)everything, everything, everything's good
(Em)Down home, yeah
And (C)oh oh oh oh oh oh, yeah

(Chorus)
Down (G)home, oh, you know mama's still cooking
Them down (D)home grits, I promise I'm working
With this gui-(Em)tar about as hard as I can
I met a (C)girl, bought a house, I put a nice little payment
Down (G)home is still where my heart is
This down (D)homе kid is just how you left him
I still (Em)hate that you're gone, I wish you were here
But I hope I'm (C)making you proud
'Cause I know you're up there looking down (G)home
Down (D)home, down home, (Em) yeah

We still (C)miss you, we still miss you
We miss you down (G)home - - - - -
