[Intro]
G C D
[Verse]
G
I went home for christmas
D
to the house that I grew up in
G D
going back was something after all these years
G
I drove down monterey street
D
and felt a little sadness
Em C
when I turned left on laurel and the house appeared
D
and I snuck up to that rocking chair
C G D
where the winter sunlight slanted on the screened-in porch
Am
and I stared out past the shade tree
C Em D
that my laughing daddy planted on the day that I was born
[Chorus]
Em D G C D
And I let time go by so slow
Em D G C D
and I made every moment last
C
and I thought about years
D
how they take so long
G
and they go so fast
[Verse]
G D
Across the street the randol's oldest daughter must have come home
G D
her two boys built a snowman by the backyard swings
G D
I thought of old man randol and his christmas decorations
Em C
and how he used to leave them up till early spring
D
And I thought of all the summers
C G D
that I paced that porch and swore i'd die of boredom there
Am C
and I thought of what i'd give to feel another summer linger
Em D
where a day feels like a year
[Chorus]
Em D G C D
And I let time go by so slow
Em D G C D
and I made every moment last
C
and I thought about years
D
how they take so long
G
and they go so fast
[Instrumental]
