VERSE
D G D
Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
G D A
Come around sundown to hear the sound
D G D
Kids and the crickets under pinkish skies
G D A D D
Swing on by 'cause we're drinkin' tonight
D G D
Well, in my mind, trees line the drive
G D A D
There's a kind lovin' lady belly laughin' inside
D G D
And in the mornin' while we're drinkin' brew
G D A D D
She'll say, "The city ain't nothin' like the outskirts with you"
CHORUS:
G D A G
With fireflies and some schemin' eyes we'll turn this house into a home
G D A Bm
Then we'll grin in the driveway, hell your smile outdoes the dawn
G D A Bm
Hol-old on, hope is on the way-aay
G D A G
Oh, I swear-ear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day
D G D G D A D D
VERSE:
D G D
Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
G D A D
Where the wind chimes sing to the porch swing crowd
D G D
June into August, August to May
G D A D D
With the sun beatin' down, no snow in the way
D G D
The smell of fresh-cut grass in the yard
G D A D
I don't care who you are, drink a fifth, bring your heart
D G D
You put down a tailgate, I'll put down a tune
G D A D D
'Cause out in the 'skirts, we move and shake with the moon
CHORUS:
G D A G
With fireflies and some schemin' eyes we'll turn this house into a home
G D A Bm
Then we'll grin in the driveway, hell your smile outdoes the dawn
G D A Bm
Hol-old on, hope is on the way-ay-ay-ay
G D A Bm
Oh, I swear-ear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day
G D A Bm
Oh, I swear-ear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day
CHORUS:
G D A G
With fireflies and some schemin' eyes we'll turn this house into a home
G D A Bm
Then we'll grin in the driveway, hell your smile outdoes the dawn
G D A Bm
Hol-old on, hope is on the way-ay-ay-ay
G D A Bm
Oh, I swear-ear to God we'll make it to the outskirts one day
G D A Bm
Oh, I swear-ear to God we'll make it to the outskirts one day
