D A/C# Bm G A
D
A couple miles we're almost there
A
Smack dab in the middle of nowhere
Bm G
This old place will always feel like home
D
Man this town has really changed
A
But I swear it feels the same
Bm G
All up and down these roads we roamed
A Bm
I wanna show you
G
The livin' that I've done
A Bm
Just let me show you
G A
Where it is that I come from. Right here!

This is where I discovered love
Bm A
And where I learned about the One above

This is where I became a man

I faced those demons and I took my stand
G A
And where I learned your heart could be broken

And this is where it all went down
D
This is my old stompin' ground
D A/C# Bm G A
D
Over there's where I played ball
A
Man I felt about ten feet tall
Bm G
When I came up to bat they'd all back up
D
There we'd hide by the light of the moon
A
And hit the cars with the water ballons
Bm G
Right there I swear I rolled my truck
A Bm
I wanna show you
G
The livin' that I've done

Just let me show you
G A
Where it is that I come from. Right here!

Bm A
I felt the heat until I saw the light
G A

I can't believe the things we did back then
