[Intro 1]
[C][G]
[Am][Em][F]

[Verse 1]
I [C]was
driving just the other day
on a traffic filled interstate
and I [G]sat back and thought to myself man
I really hate this place [Am]they told
me I would love it here
but I [Em]just can't make myself call it [F]home
cuz [C]home to me is real sweet tea
and a bowl of homemade peach ice cream
and [G]Mimi's in the kitchen saying
come finish these green beans
and [Am]Papa's in his big old chair saying [Em]boys
I sure am getting [F]old then
[C]I awake from this dream
and I'm driving down
these endless streets
and [G]nothing hurts me more
than to think of all those things
I [Am]know it won't be long till [Em]I pack my bags
and I [F]go [C]home[G][Am][Em]
[F]
A few [C]restless nights and long hard days
And homesick thoughts
haunted my brain
Those [G]good old days out on the lake
When I was scared of those big waves
or [Am]when we chased those cows around
Just [Em]like we owned Shadydale [F]Farm
Cause [C]home to me is real sweet tea
and a bowl of homemade peach ice cream
And [G]Mimi's in the kitchen saying,
come finish these green beans
And [Am]Papa's in his big old chair saying,
[Em]boys I sure am getting old[F][C]
[F][C][G]
[Am][Em][F]
Now the [C]day has come
and I made my choice
I just can't wait to see my boys
We'll [G]stay up all night long
and scream Johnny Cash
till we lose our voice
And I'm [Am]so glad to say it
[Em]Boys, I'm finally coming [F]home
Cause [C]home to me is real sweet tea
And a bowl of homemade peach ice cream
And [G]Mimi's in the kitchen saying
Come finish these green beans
And [Am]Papa's in his big ol' chair sayin'
[Em]Boys, I sure am [F]gettin' old
