[Intro]
D  Bm  D  F#m  A  x2

[Verse]
D         Bm
  I am an architect
   F#m               A
Of days that haven't happened yet
  D               Bm                F#m      A
I can't believe a month is all it's been
D             Bm
  You know my paper heart
    F#m             A
The one I fill with pencil marks
  D                  Bm                 F#m     A
I think I might have gone and inked you in

[Chorus]
G
Little by little, inch by inch
           D/F#
We built a yard
                     A
With a garden in the middle of it
G
It ain't much, but it's a start
           D/F#
You got me swaying right along
       A
To the song in your heart
      G
And a face to call home
  D/F#         A
A face to call home
          G                D/F#   A
You got a face to call home

[Interlude]
D  Bm  D  F#m  A

[Verse]
D                  Bm
  It's so good you didn't see
    F#m             A
The nervous wreck I used to be
      D            Bm                F#m      A
You'd never know a man could feel so small
D           Bm              F#m      A
  You never look at me like I'm a liability
  D                    Bm            F#m     A
I bet you'd think I've never been at all

[Chorus]
G
Little by little, inch by inch
           D/F#
We built a yard
                     A
With a garden in the middle of it
G
It ain't much, but it's a start
           D/F#
You got me swaying right along
       A
To the song in your heart
      G
And a face to call home
  D/F#         A
A face to call home
          G                D/F#   A
You got a face to call home
  G
A face to call home
  D/F#         A
A face to call home
          G                D/F#   A
You got a face to call home

[Interlude]
G  D/F#  A  x4

[Outro]
            G
Maybe I can stay awhile
            D/F#        A
Maybe I can stay awhile
            G
Maybe I can stay awhile
                 D/F#            A
I'm talking like all of the time
             G
(Maybe I can stay awhile)

Little by little, inch by inch
           D/F#
We built a yard
                     A
With a garden in the middle of it
G
It ain't much, but it's a start
           D/F#
You got me swaying right along
       A
To the song in your heart
      G
And a face to call home
  D/F#         A
A face to call home
          G                D/F#   A
You got a face to call home

G  D/F#  A
