BLÜ EYES - Halcyon

Capo: 1st fret

[Verse 1]

C C/B Am
There’s a house just off of halcyon road
F C G
On a mesa overlooking the central coast
C C/B Am
It’s where my grandma and my grandpa both grew old
F C G
And it’s always been my home away from home

[Pre-chorus]

C C/B
I grew up playing in the backyard
Am G
Swinging on the swing set
F C G
No idea what the real world was or how crazy it gets
C C/B
Playing hide and seek
Am
With my cousins in the trees
F C G
No clue then how much it all would mean to me

[Chorus]

C C/B Am G F
I owe it all, I owe it all
C G
To the memories in those four walls
C C/B Am G F
I owe it all, I owe it all
C G C C/B Am G F C G
To the ones who taught me to love big and strong

[Verse 2]

C C/B Am
On Sunday mornings we would drive down to the beach
F C G
All of us kids piled into the backseat
C C/B Am
Run up and down the dunes and jump over the creeks
F C G
Since then I don’t think I’ve ever felt so free

[Pre-chorus]

C C/B
Come home and hang out in the parlor
Am G
After the sun went down
F C
That old bean bag from the sixties
G
Was the best seat in the house
C C/B
Every night by nine o’clock
Am G
We’d end up singing Beatles’ songs
F C G
Three-part harmonies I swear still linger on

[Chorus]

C C/B Am G
I owe it all, I owe it all
F C G
To the memories in those four walls
C C/B Am G
I owe it all, I owe it all
F C G C C/B Am G F C G
To the ones who taught me to love big and strong

[Bridge]

F
When grandpa finally said goodbye
G
We sat in the living room and cried
C C/B Am
And I knew it would never be the same
F C
We took a walk, watched the sunset
G C C/B Am G F C G
And I knew it all would be okay

[Chorus]

C C/B Am G
I owe it all, I owe it all
F C G
To the memories in those four walls
C C/B Am G
I owe it all, I owe it all
F C G C
To the ones who taught me to love big and strong
