Verse
G D Em
There's a house just off of halcyon road
C G D
On a mesa overlooking the central coast
G D Em
It's where my grandma and my grandpa both grew old
C G Dsus4 D
And it's always been my home away from home
[Pre-chorus]
G D
I grew up playing in the backyard
Em Dm
Swinging on the swing set
C G Dsus4 D
No idea what the real world was or how crazy it gets
G D
Playing hide and seek
Em
With my cousins in the trees
C G Dsus4 D
No clue then how much it all would mean to me
[Chorus]
G D Em7 Em C
I owe it all, I owe it all
G Dsus4 D
To the memories in those four walls
G D Em7 Em C
I owe it all, I owe it all
G Dsus4 D G D Em7 Em C G D
To the ones who taught me to love big and strong
[Verse 2]
G D Em
On Sunday mornings we would drive down to the beach
C G D
All of us kids piled into the backseat
G D Em
Run up and down the dunes and jump over the creeks
C G Dsus4 D
Since then I don't think I've ever felt so free
[Pre-chorus]
G D
Come home and hang out in the parlor
Em Dm
After the sun went down
C G
That old bean bag from the sixties
Dsus4 D
Was the best seat in the housee
G D
Every night by nine o'clock
Em D
We'd end up singing Beatles' songs
C Dsus4 D
Three part harmonies I swear still linger on
[Chorus]
G D Em7 Em C
I owe it all, I owe it all
G Dsus4 D
To the memories in those four walls
G D Em7 Em C
I owe it all, I owe it all
G Dsus4 D G D Em7 Em C G D
To the ones who taught me to love big and strong
[Bridge]
C
When grandpa finally said goodbye
D
We sat in the living room and cried
G Em
And I knew it would never be the same
C
We took a walk, watched the sunset
D G D Em D C G D
And I knew it all would be okay
[Chorus]
G D Em7 Em C
I owe it all, I owe it all
G Dsus4 D
To the memories in those four walls
G D Em7 Em C
I owe it all, I owe it all
G Dsus4 D G
To the ones who taught me to love big and strong
