The House That Built Me Song Lyrics
I know they say you can’t go home again
I just had to come back one last time
Ma’am, I know you don’t know me from Adam
But these hand prints on the front steps are mine…
*****
Up those stairs in that little back bedroom
Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar
And I bet you didn’t know under that live oak
My favorite dog is buried in the yard…
*****
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healing
Out here it’s like I’m someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself…
*****
If I could just come in I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothin’ but a memory
From the house that built me…
*****
Momma cut out pictures of houses for years
From better homes and garden magazine
Plans were drawn and concrete poured
And nail by nail and board by board
Daddy gave life to momma’s dream…
*****
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healing
Out here it’s like I’m someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself…
*****
If I could just come in I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothin’ but a memory
From the house that built me…
*****
You leave home, you move on
And you do the best you can
I got lost in this ‘ole world
And forgot who I am…
*****
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healing
Out here it’s like I’m someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself…
*****
If I could walk around I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothin’ but a memory
From the house that built me…
The House That Built Me Song Chords
I know they say, you can’t go home again
I just had to come back one last time
Ma’am I know, you don’t know me from Adam
But these hand prints on the front steps are mine
Up those stairs, in that little back bedroom
Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar
And I bet you didn’t know, under that live oak
My favorite dog is buried in the yard
I thought if I could touch this place, or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healin’
Out here it’s like I’m someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could just come in I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothin’ but a memory
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years
Plans were drawn and concrete poured and
Nail by nail and board by board
Daddy gave life to Mama’s dream
I thought if I could touch this place, or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healin’
Out here it’s like I’m someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could just come in I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothin’ but a memory
You leave home and you move on and you do the best you can
I got lost in this old world and forgot, who I am
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me might start healing
Out here it’s like I’m someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could walk around I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothin’ but a memory
