[Verse]
       E                         A
Every now and then I go back in time
              E                       A
To that little red house on Oakmont Drive
C#m
Next to that big magnolia tree
   A                               E             A*
A wide-eyed girl running wild and free, that's me
E                                    A
Me and my brothers in the Georgia sun
          E                                   A
Runnin' through the yard with the sprinklers on
     C#m
Lazy dog lyin' in the cool green grass
  A                              E               A
Never thought life would fly so fast, it don't last

[Chorus]
          E    B              A
I still hear that old sweet song
         E    B                   A
A simple melody calling me back home
           C#m         B         A  E
Where the love grows pure and strong
        Abm          A
That's where my heart
                             E
That's where my heart belongs

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
   E                            A
Skippin' stones and kickin' cans
          E                                 A
Stealing my first kiss by the lemonade stand
   C#m
I can't forget those southern nights
 A                      E               A
Falling stars and fireflies, felt so right

[Chorus]
          B       C#m      B     A
I still hear that old -- sweet song
          E       C#m   B         A
A simple melody calling me back home
           C#m         B         A  E
Where the love grows pure and strong
        Abm          A
That's where my heart
                             E
That's where my heart belongs

[Verse]
        E                       A
Those family days are all but gone
            E                            A
Everybody moved out, everybody's moved on
         C#m7
When I'm all alone and feeling like
      A                                 E
I'm stuck in the middle of this crazy life
              A
I just close my eyes

[Chorus]
           B                    A
And I can hear that old sweet song
          E                    A
A simple melody calling me back home
       B                    A
I can hear that old sweet song
          E       C#m   B        A
A simple melody calling me back home
           C#m         B         A  E
Where the love grows pure and strong
        Abm          A
That's where my heart
                             E A
That's where my heart belongs
E         A E
