VERSE:
D G D
Most mornings she’s up before the sun even thinks about rising
D G A
Gets breakfast going and the laundry out for drying
D G D
Makes a cup of coffee, finds her favorite front porch spot
D A
And has a few minutes with the Lord before the crazy starts
PRE-CHORUS:
Em G D Em
She keeps this family running like a well-oiled machine
G A
And never asks for anything
CHORUS:
D A
It’s not just the boards in the floors, the hinges on the doors
Bm G D
The nails in the walls that keep this place from falling
D A
It’s not just the windows in the rooms, the shingles on the roof
Bm G A
The bricks and stones that give this place its bones
Em
She might deny it,
G
But we all know better
A D D Gmaj7
She holds this house together
VERSE:
D G D
She’s always got a shoulder when you need one to lean on
D G A
And you can bet she’ll stay up late waiting for you to come home
D G D
She’s a wife and a mother and everything in between
D
She makes it all look easy,
A
Though it’s harder than it seems
CHORUS:
D A
It’s not just the boards in the floors, the hinges on the doors
Bm G D
The nails in the walls that keep this place from falling
D A
It’s not just the windows in the rooms, the shingles on the roof
Bm G A
The bricks and stones that give this place its bones
Em
She might deny it,
G
But we all know better
A D D G D A
She holds this house together
BREAK:
G D
For her it’s second nature, never feels like a heavy load
Em A
Even when the foundation cracks and the weeds start to grow
CHORUS:
D A
It’s not just the boards in the floors, the hinges on the doors
Bm G D
The nails in the walls that keep this place from falling
D A
It’s not just the windows in the rooms, the shingles on the roof
Bm G A
The bricks and stones that give this place its bones
Em
She might deny it,
G
But we all know better
OUTRO:
A D D G
She holds this house together
A D D G
She holds this house together
A D
She holds this house together
