Capo: 1st fret
[Chorus]
Bb F
The hardest part of going home
Bb F
Is facin' that you're gettin' older
Bb F A
And everything you've ever known is over
[Post-Chorus]
Bb
Is over, is over, is over
[Verse 1]
Dm C F
Down by the water
Gm Am
Where the auburn leaves were shinin'
Am Dm C F
Holding hands with my father
Gm Am
And I swear I saw him crying
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb F
'Cause it's been so long
Bb F
And the day's soon gone
[Chorus]
Bb F
The hardest part of going home
Bb F
Is facin' that you're gettin' older
Bb F A Bb
And everything you've ever known is over, hm
Bb F
And all the paths are overgrown
Bb F
The sun is down, it's gettin' colder
Bb F Dm Bb
And everything you've ever known is over, is over
[Verse 2]
Bb C F
In your eyes, I see the fire
Gm Am
That so long ago was burnin'
Am Dm C F
Through our smiles, we try to hide it
Gm Am
All the years that we've been hurtin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb C F
We don't get too long
Bb F
That's why I'm holdin' on
[Chorus]
Bb F
The hardest part of going home
Bb F
Is facin' that you're gettin' older
Bb F A Bb
And everything you've ever known is over, hm
Bb F
And all the paths are overgrown
Bb F
The sun is down, it's gettin' colder
Bb F Dm Bb
And everything you've ever known is over, is over
[Bridge]
Bb
Is over, is over, is over, is over, is over, is over
[Chorus]
Bb F
Yeah, the hardest part of going home
Bb F
Is facin' that you're gettin' older
Bb F A Bb
And everything you've ever known is over, is over
Bb F
All the paths are overgrown
Bb F
The sun is down, it's gettin' colder
Bb F Dm Bb
(And everything you've ever known is over,
is over, is over, is over, is over)
[Outro]
Bb F Bb F Bb F Dm
Bb F Bb F Bb F Dm
The hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known
Is over
Is over
Is over
Is over
Down
By the water
Where the auburn leaves were shining
Holding hands
With my father
And I swear I saw him crying
'Cause it's been
So long
And the day's
Soon gone
And the hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known
Is over, mmm
And all the paths are overgrown
The sun is down, it's getting colder
And everything you've ever known is over
Is over
In your eyes, I see the fire
That, so long ago, was burning
Through our smiles, we try to hide it
All the years that we've been hurting
We don't get
Too long
That's why I'm
Holding on
And the hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known
Is over, mmm
And all the paths are overgrown
The sun is down, it's getting colder
And everything you've ever known is over
Is over
Is over
Is over
Is over
Is over
Yeah, the hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known is over
Is over
And all the paths are overgrown
The sun is down, it's getting colder
And everything you've ever known is over
Is over
Is over
Is over
