House I Used To Call Home

       F                         F/E
It was here on this floor that I learned to crawl
      Dm7                        Csus4
And I took my first steps in the upstairs hall
Bb                     Csus4            F
Crazy back then how it seemed so big to me
       F                         F/E
I can still see the marks on the closet door
        Dm7                   Csus4
Mom and dad started measuring me at four
         Bb                  Csus4            F
That was always my favorite spot for hide and seek


[Chorus]
         Bb              F
So to whoever lives here next
       C          Dm
I have only one request
        Bb                  F           C                  Csus4 C
Promise me that you’ll take care of the place that knew me best
             Bb           F
I’ll pack my memories and go
               C                 Dm
So you’ll have room to make your own
        C           Bb           Csus4        F
Just be good to the housе that I used to call home

            F                          F/E
Therе’s the window where I would sneak out at night
      Dm7                        Csus4
Had my first kiss right under the back porch light
     Bb                         Csus4             F
When she broke my heart, didn’t leave my room for weeks
    F                        F/E
Eighteen, backing out of the driveway
     Dm7                    Csus4
Even though everything was about to change
        Bb                       Csus4             F
It’d be there at the end of the street waiting for me


[Chorus]
         Bb              F
So to whoever lives here next
       C          Dm
I have only one request
        Bb                  F           C                  Csus4 C
Promise me that you’ll take care of the place that knew me best
             Bb           F
I’ll pack my memories and go
               C                 Dm
So you’ll have room to make your own
        C           Bb           Csus4        F
Just be good to the housе that I used to call home

             Bb           F
I’ll pack my memories and go
               A7                Dm
So you’ll have room to make your own
        C           Bb           Csus4        F
Just be good to the house that I used to call home

Now I’ve gathered my things in a cardboard box
Dm7                     Csus4
Found the old blanket I thought was lost
         Bb                            Csus4          Dm
It’s the last time that I’ll feel this floor under my feet
       Bb                        Csus4              N.C.
As I’m leaving, this house never looked so small to me
