[Intro]
C    F    C    F
 
[Verse 1]
       C                          G
In a small town in Georgia, over forty years ago
F                                    C                G
Her maiden name was Musick until she met that Jackson boy
F                                               C             F
They married young like folks did then, not a penny to their name
            C
But they believed the one you vowed to love
         G              C
Should always stay the same
 
[Verse 2]
                                       G
On the land his daddy gave them a foundation underway
F                              C                 G
For a love to last forever or until their dying day
F                                           C                F
They built a bond that was strong enough to stand the test of time
        C                                G
And a place for us to turn to when our lives
            C
Where in a bind
 
[Chorus]
          G
And they made their house from a tool shed
             F/C               C
Granddaddy rolled down on two logs
          G                                 F/C
And they built walls all around it and they made
              G
That house a home
           F
And they taught us about good living
C                           F
They taught us right from wrong
               C                             G
Lord theyâll never be another place in this world
                C
That I'll call home
 
[Verse 3]
       C                          G
My mama raised five children, four girls then their was me
F                                          C         G
She found her strength with faith in God and love of family
F                             C             F
She never had a social life, home was all she knew
C                                 G             C
Except the time she took a job to pay a bill or two
 
[Verse 4]
C                                    G
My daddy skinned his knuckles on the cars that he repaired
F                           C                     G
He never earned much money, but he gave us all he had
F                                   C               F
He never made the front page but he did the best he could
          C
And folks drove their cars from all around
           G                   C
To let him look underneath the hood
 
[Chorus]
          G
And they made their house from a tool shed
             F/C               C
Granddaddy rolled down on two logs
          G                                 F/C
And they built walls all around it and they made
              G
That house a home
           F
And they taught us about good living
C                           F
They taught us right from wrong
               C                             G
Lord theyâll never be another place in this world
                C
That I'll call home
 
 
F            C (one strum)                 G (one strum)
No there'll never be another place in this world
                F       C       G       C      F   C
That I'll call home
