VERSE
DGD
Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
GDA
Come around sundown to hear the sound
DGD
Kids and the crickets under pinkish skies
GDADD
Swing on by 'cause we're drinkin' tonight
DGD
Well, in my mind, trees line the drive
GDAD
There's a kind lovin' lady belly laughin' inside
DGD
And in the mornin' while we're drinkin' brew
GDADD
She'll say, "The city ain't nothin' like the outskirts with you"
CHORUS:
GDAG
With fireflies and some schemin' eyes we'll turn this house into a home
GDABm
Then we'll grin in the driveway, hell your smile outdoes the dawn
GDABm
Hol-old on, hope is on the way-aay
GDAG
Oh, I swear-ear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day

VERSE:
DGD
Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
GDAD
Where the wind chimes sing to the porch swing crowd
DGD
June into August, August to May
GDADD
With the sun beatin' down, no snow in the way
DGD
The smell of fresh-cut grass in the yard
GDAD
I don't care who you are, drink a fifth, bring your heart
DGD
You put down a tailgate, I'll put down a tune
GDADD
'Cause out in the 'skirts, we move and shake with the moon
CHORUS:
GDAG
With fireflies and some schemin' eyes we'll turn this house into a home
GDABm
Then we'll grin in the driveway, hell your smile outdoes the dawn
GDABm
Hol-old on, hope is on the way-ay-ay-ay
GDABm
Oh, I swear-ear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day
GDABm
Oh, I swear-ear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day
CHORUS:
GDAG
With fireflies and some schemin' eyes we'll turn this house into a home
GDABm
Then we'll grin in the driveway, hell your smile outdoes the dawn
GDABm
Hol-old on, hope is on the way-ay-ay-ay
GDABm
Oh, I swear-ear to God we'll make it to the outskirts one day
GDABm
Oh, I swear-ear to God we'll make it to the outskirts one day
