I'm not to fond of the other version on here so here's a tab of how I like to play this song
Standard Tuning
CAPO: 6th Fret
Not sure what the chord names are so I'll just call them by what they would be if they
were played without a capo
CHORDS:
C | F | Am | G |
e|--0--|--1--|--0--|--1--|
B|--1--|--1--|--1--|--1--|
G|--0--|--2--|--2--|--0--|
D|--2--|--3--|--2--|--0--|
A|--3--|--3--|--0--|--2--|
E|--3--|--1--|--0--|--3--|
Bef[C]ore you, your [F]mom and dad [C]used to sm[F]oke in the [Am]Texas sun
[C]They were young once too
And y[C]our mom s[F]he found J[C]esus
[F]While your [Am]old man stepped out and [C]drew up his veins
Bridge:
[C-F-C-F]
It's [C]quiet in the h[F]ouse of the [C]old
[F]You can [Am]hear through grinding teeth, [C]clocks taking their toll
Cause [C]time has a [F]mind of [C]its own
[F]Like our [Am]sun spinning around
It [C]wont slow for you now
[C]Oh I wanna catch in a [Am]song
Notes I don't [F]hear yet
But I will when I'm [G]gone
[C]I've been [F]pouring my [C]heart up
[F]Up through the [Am]floor boards
But you don't live here[C] no more
[C]Oh you wanna catch in a [Am]lens
Color your [F]green eyes don't see just[G] yet
Bridge:
[C-F-C-F]
The [C]horse men
They all [F]blow out their [C]torches
[F]I can [Am]see you still shining out[C]
But [C]you sleep in a [F]bed for a [C]giant
[F]While you [Am]wait for your love to come home
But you don't know, she's not coming [C]back[F][C]
[C]Oh I wanna find out I'm [Am]wrong
And every [F]road leads us [G]home
[C]Oh but I'll never [Am]know, 'cause I[F] keep my eyes closed
And [G]only go where I've been before
