OLD HOUSES
As recorded by Aaron Watson
(2025 release)
[Intro]
A Amaj7 A Amaj7 A
[Verse 1]
A Amaj7 A
He picked her up and carried her through the front door
A
They didn't have enough to have a honeymoon
Dmaj7
Nine months later, brought me home
A E
Then when sister came along, they turned the old garage into my new bedroom
[Chorus]
Dmaj7
Looking back, I'm living proof
Bm7 A
All the love under that roof had a foundation of faith, family, and friends
Dmaj7
All the hard times that we felt
Bm7
Momma's prayers and Daddy's belt
A Amaj7
Wood floors creaking kept us from sneaking out again
Bm7 A/C# D
And it takes years and years to grow them big old trees
Bm7 A/C#
It takes a lifetime to make those memories
D E A
And that's why you can't build old houses
[Verse 2]
A
I grew up quick, said, "Adios" to Amarillo
A
I had to branch out, but my roots were deep and strong
Dmaj7
Loaded up that Chevrolet, left 'em there in that driveway
A E
As I drove off to change the world with the country song
[Chorus]
Dmaj7
Looking back, I'm living proof
Bm7 A
All the love under that roof had a foundation of faith, family, and friends
Dmaj7
All the hard times that we felt
Bm7
Momma's prayers and Daddy's belt
A Amaj7
Wood floors creaking kept us from sneaking out again
