(Intro: Fmaj7, C/G, G, G, x3)


Am7      G     

CWhen I was a boy I didn't know nothin',
Am7Didn't have a care in the world,
      GI had innocence and ignorance of things,
               Fmaj7I wish I still did not know.
       CBut no matter how far these songs take me,
       Am7If my dreams come true oh the heart aches break me,
   GNo matter where I make my bed,
       Fmaj7        GI long for you.

CWe've all got a story frozen in time,
Am7Places and people, livin' and dyin'
    G The heart beats and breathe and just tryin'
                    Fmaj7To make sense of it all
         CI am the second born of my mother and father
       Am7He's a lion hearted man, she's a Jesus lovin' woman
       G                                Fmaj7         GAnd no matter how far I roam I always belong

Am7                   G             Fmaj7    It's not just geography, it's a part of me, the air I breathe.
Am7                   Em             Fmaj7       G    And we've got a history, and the blood runs through.
