 G            G/F#
Tear down the house
     C         G
That I grew up in
 G         D       C     G
I'll never be the same again
 G      G/F#          C      G
Take everything that I’ve collected
      G      D     G
And throw it in a pile
 
  G           G/F#
Bulldoze the woods
     C        G
That I ran through
  G           D        C      G
Carry the pictures of me and you
   G        G/F#     C          G
I have no memory of who I once was
    G          D           G
And I don't remember your name
 
 G           G/F#
Park the old car
     C           G
That I love the best
  G                D           C             G
(The) inspections due and it won’t pass the test
      G        G/F#       C         G
It’s funny how I have to put it to rest
     G       D           G
And how one day…I will join it
 
 G    G/F#  C          G
I remember crying over you
       G                  D         C
And I don't mean like a couple of tears
         G
And I'm blue
     G              G/F#
I’m talkin’ about collapsing
       C               G
And screaming at the moon
      G           D
But I'm a better man
     C            G
For having gone through it
      G           C
Yes, I'm a better man
      D           C
For having gone through…
 
 G    G/F#      C            G
Ever since I learned how to curse
 G          D           C        G
I’ve been using those sorry old words
           G               G/F#
But, I’m talkin’ to these children
          C          G
And I’m keeping it clean
   G                 D
I don’t need those words
    C          G
To say what I mean
       G                C
No, I don’t need those words
    D           G
To say what I mean
 
 G             G/F#
Tear down the house
     C          G
That I grew up in
 G         D       C    G
I'll never be the same again
 G       G/F#         C        G
Take everything that I used to own
      G     D     G
And burn it in a pile
        G          G/F#
And, bulldoze the woods
     C       G
That I ran through
  G          D        C       G
Carry the pictures of me and you
   G       G/F#       C         G
I have no memory of who I once was
    G            D          G
And I don't remember your name
