Capo 4 (Recorded in F#)
Intro: D
D
I dropped to my knees in that field on your daddy's farm.
Asked you to marry me, all I had to give was my heart.
While other kids went diving into swimming holes,
G A
You and me dove off into the great unknown.
D
We were barely gettin' by, takin' care of each other.
Then I became a daddy you became a mother.
Was an uphill battle nearly every day,
G A
Lookin' back I wouldn't have it any other way.
CHORUS
D A
I'm proud of the house we built.
Bm A
It's stronger than sticks, stones, and steel.
G A
It's not a big place sittin' up high on some hill.
G A
A lot of things will come and go but love never will.
Em A D A
Oh, I'm proud. I'm proud of the house we built.
D
Still workin' our way through the land of milk and honey.
At the end of the day there's always more bills than money.
I close my eyes at night and I still feel
G A
The same fire in my heart I felt out in that feild
CHORUS
