[Intro 1]
[D][Am][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
He [G]shows us
through the empty rooms,
says I [D]hate to sell this place
And it [C]seems like all our [G]plans and dreams
are memories he has [D]made
He says the [G]last time this
whole house was sold
was [D]1961.
Seemed like a [Am]mansion
[G]then when [C]Kate and I were [D]young.
Hittin' close to [C]home,
we're takin' him [G]back in time.
When two [D]young [Em]lovers
thought [Am]they had just
bought para[D]dise
Now he's all [C]alone
He's leaving more than [Em]two
by [D]fours and [C]stone
[G]Those [Am]days are gone
and it's [D]hidden close to
[G]home[D][G][Am][G][C][G]
He walks across the bedroom floor,
sees a [D]crack in the window pane
He [C]smiles and says, I [G]promise Kate,
I'll change that glass some [D]day
Then he [G]looks out toward
the new fold lane
Says that was woods [C]when
we moved [G]in
Lord, I can [Am]almost hear [G]those
[C]whippoorwills aga[D]in
Hittin' close to [C]home
We're takin' [Am]him b[G]ack in time
When two [D]young [Em]lovers
thought [Am]they had just
bought [D]paradise
Now he's all [C]alone
He's leavin' more than [Em]two
by [D]fours and [C]stone
[G]Those [Am]days are gone
and it's [D]hittin' close to [G]home[Am][G][C][G]
He shows us through the empty rooms,
says I [C]hate to sell this [G]place.
