C Am
[Verso 1]
C
I remember running barefoot in a gravel drive,
Em
Summer heat and not a cloud in the sky,
Am
Songbirds singing like a worn-out hymn,
F
Didnt know it then, but that was heaven.
C
Dog barking at the wind, grandma sweeping the floor,
Em
I can smell supper cooking through that old screen door,
Am
TV humming but we stayed outside,
F
Chasing lightning bugs late into the night.
[Pré-Refrão]
Dm7
We didnt know we were making gold,
F
Just living life like itd never get old
[Refrão]
C
Id give anything just to go back in time,
Am
To that front porch swing and that ol clothesline,
F
Where time stood still like it didnt care,
G
And love came easy as a Sunday prayer.
C
Yeah, you dont know what you got til its gone,
Am
Now Im holding on to a life thats moved on,
F
If I could live one more memory, I swear
G C Am
Id give anything just to go back there.
[Verso 2]
C
Up at dawn with the rooster crow,
Em
Boots hit the floor and off we'd go
Am
Fence line fixing with a coffee can
F
Learning hard work from my old man.
C
Rusted swing on an oak tree limb,
Em
Hand-me-down dreams and passed on sins,
Am
First kiss tasted like a cherry Coke,
F
Fishing by the creek where the cat tails grow.
[Pré-Refrão]
Dm7
We swore one day wed leave this place,
F
Now Id trade it all just to see those days
[Refrão]
C
Id give anything just to go back in time,
Am
To that front porch swing and that ol clothesline,
F
Where time stood still like it didnt care,
G
And love came easy as a Sunday prayer.
C
Yeah, you dont know what you got til its gone,
Am
Now Im holding on to a life thats moved on,
F
If I could live one more memory, I swear
G C
Id give anything just to go back there.
C Am F G
[Ponte]
C
Now the porch light flickers a little dimmer,
And the dogwood blooms less than I remember,
Am7
Granddaddys chair still leans the same,
F
But it dont quite creak when I say his name
Dm7
And every road I take away,
F
Just circles back to yesterday
Final Chorus
C
Id give anything just to go back there,
Am
Hear the screen door slam in that summer air,
F
Watch shadows dancing by the light of the moon,
G
Now it just echoes through an empty room
C
Yeah, Id trade these miles and the man Ive been,
Am
Just to feel that young and free again
F G
If there's a road out there that leads to anywhere
Dm7 G C
Id give anything... just to go back there
