This Was A Home Once

Ab - Eb

[Verse 1]
   Ab                Eb
My bedroom looks the same
            Ab         Eb
But that is not how it feels
            Ab         Eb
I guess the dog is now dead
          Ab         Eb
My little sister, in heels
    Ab             Eb
She drives her own car now
        Ab          Eb
Wears a ring in her nose
        Ab       Eb
Mom and dad play pretend
         Ab          Eb
But it's over and we know


[Chorus]
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
        Ab        Eb           Ab
Now the ceiling's falling, I feel
        Eb
 the rain
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
      Ab     Eb          Ab       Eb
With so much love comes so much pain

[Verse 2]
            Ab           Eb
My mother's face is like stone
          Ab           Eb
My father comes and he goes
        Ab                 Eb  
And our neighbors now they moved 
          Ab  Eb
away to Mexico
  Ab    Eb           Ab      Eb
Reality comes once I finally hear
               Ab              
"Son I've been waiting for this 
 Eb         Ab Eb
moment for 13 years"


[Chorus]
           Ab           Eb Ab Eb
This was a home once
      Ab      Eb       Ab         
Can I say something to change your
 Eb
 mind?
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
          Ab       Eb      Ab    
All these years go by and I've 
   Eb
been blind


[Bridge]
       Ab          Eb           
And as one chapter ends another 
Ab        Eb
chapter begins
       Ab             Eb          
Now my life revolves around 
    Ab         Eb
cliches I hated as a kid
   Ab             Eb               
My sister's still young, I hate to 
Ab           Eb
see her face blue
          Ab                Eb    
Though we can't control the rest 
              Ab        Eb
one thing will always be true


[Chorus]
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
          Ab       Eb        
Where we found our way, oh the 
   Ab    Eb
golden days
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
          Ab    Eb          
Where my life begun, where life 
Ab        Eb
moves on
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once (Was a home, it
 was a home once)
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once (Was a home, it
 was a home once, oh!)
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
           Ab      Eb   Ab   Eb
This was a home once
