The House That Built Me by Miranda Lambert
I know (1)________ say
You can't go home again
I just had to come back one last time
Ma’am I know
You don’t know me from Adam
But these handprints on the front steps are mine
And up those stairs
In that little back bedroom
Is where I did my homework
And I learned to play guitar
And I bet you didn’t know
Under that live oak
My favorite dog is buried in the yard
I thought if I could touch (2)________ place or feel it
This brokenness (3)____________ me (4)__________ start healing
Out here its like I’m someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could just come in I (5)__________ I’ll leave
Won’t take nothing but a memory
From the (6)__________ that
Built me
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years
From ‘Better Homes and Garden’ magazines
Plans were drawn and (7)________________ poured
And nail by nail and board by board
Daddy gave life to mama’s dream
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This brokenness inside me
Might start healing
Out here its like I’m someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could just (8)________ in I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothing but a memory
From the house that
Built me
You leave home
You move on
And you do the best you can
I got lost in this whole world and forgot
Who I am
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
This (9)____________________ inside me
Might (10)__________ healing
Out here its like I’m someone else
I thought that maybe I could find myself
If I could walk around I swear I’ll leave
Won’t take nothing but a memory
