[Intro]

[Verse]
A                                                                 
■ It’s faded by the back door full of scratches and a couple dents
    A                                                         
The way it creeks there weren’t no sneakin’ out or sneakin’ in
E                                                             
And I learned that the hard way coming home from my first date
        D                                                A   
Dad was waiting at the counter worried sick ‘cause I was late
A                                                     
Grandma dropped that old cast iron teaching me to cook
    A                                                        
And you can see the burn mark there if you know where to look
          E                                                    A  
There’s a scuff right by the wall from fighting over some dumb guy
Dmaj7                                                    
Momma left it there to prove the point she’s always right


[Chorus]
D                                   
These hardwoods have seen hard times
                    D     
Long talks and late nights
A                                                      
Dance parties and spilled wine ain’t nothin to cry over
D                                              
Potlucks and birthdays goodbyes and heartbreaks
A                                                         
Where mama wiped my tears away and I always had a shoulder
F#m                E         D                                
Muddy boots by the back door that grand dad don’t wear no more
                        E                     A    
Been a whole lotta life lived on this kitchen floor


[Verse]
       A                                                           
Been a long time since we wore the shine right off that solid maple
      A                                                          
But I wouldn’t trade a memory made saying grace around that table
E                                                                    
There’s years of smiles and stories safe and sound in that wood grain
         Dmaj7                          D                    
And if I had a million dollars hell I’d keep em just the same


[Chorus]
      D                             
These hardwoods have seen hard times
                    D     
Long talks and late nights
A                                                      
Dance parties and spilled wine ain’t nothin to cry over
D                                              
Potlucks and birthdays goodbyes and heartbreaks
A                                                         
Where mama wiped my tears away and I always had a shoulder
F#m7               E              D                           
Muddy boots by the back door that grand dad don’t wear no more
                        E             F#m7         
Been a whole lotta life lived on this kitchen floor

■ ■ ■   ■ ■
F#m7              E             D   
Man I missed them since I moved away
F#m7                     E                 D                      
Can’t wait to build some memories board by board like that someday
D                                   
These hardwoods have seen hard times
                    D     
Long talks and late nights
A                                                      
Dance parties and spilled wine ain’t nothin to cry over


[Chorus]
D                                              
Potlucks and birthdays goodbyes and heartbreaks
      A                                                   
Where mama wiped my tears away and I always had a shoulder
F#m7               E              D                           
Muddy boots by the back door that grand dad don’t wear no more
                        E                     A    
Been a whole lotta life lived on this kitchen floor
