[Intro]
D D/G
[Verse 1]
D A corner office was his dream
More like a prison now it sG2eems
Somewhere on the corporate climb
He left his warrior beDhind.
Now he's just a worker at a daily grind,
Steals his years and numbs his mG2ind.
His strength is fading, his dreams are blind
Em7This is not the life he had Din mind.
[Interlude]
D D/G
[Verse 2]
D She lies awake as he's up at night
Staring at his screen that tells him lG2ies
That the grass is greener on the other side
So she'sD at the gym fighting off the years
To be young again and calm her fears
That she'lG2l never be enough for him
Just asEm7 a young man catches her Deye.
[Chorus 1]
Now they're trapped in their G2own worlds and their oDwn wars
With their cAsusell phones and the cBm7losed doors
It's fG2unny how quiet and pDeaceful that it sBm7eems.
But they're G2all alone together Em7
In the house of Dtheir dreams. D/G
[Verse 3]
Little sister, she's aD sixteen-year-old princess
Lost somewhere between the swing set
And herG2 brand new crush's chariot awaits
And big brDother's rooms glowing with trophies that shout his name
But he'd trade all his high school fG2ame
For some backyard catch with his heEm7ro again
[Chorus 2]
Now they're trapped in their G2own worlds and their oDwn wars
With their cAsusell phones and the cBm7losed doors
It's fG2unny how quiet and pDeaceful that it sBm7eems.
But they're G2all alone together Em7
In the house of Dtheir dreams. D/G
[Verse 4]
So now they're aDll dressed up in Sunday best
Sit up straight just like the rest
And they G2sing the songs of peace and rest that Jesus freely giDves
DAnd then their kids look up as daddy stands
And he takes his bride with trembling hands
G2 Brother kneels at his father's side as princess looks in her mother's eyes
Their tD/Gears tear down the F#m7walls as daddy pEm7rays
[Chorus 3]
We're trapped in our G2own worlds and our oDwn wars
With our Asuscell phones and our cBm7losed doors
God, oG2nly You can sDave our famBm7ily
And G2on this Rock, we'll build
D/F#On this Rock, we'll bEm7uild
The house of our dreDams D/G
