THE KEYS
As recorded by Blake Shelton
(2025 release)
[Intro]
D Bm D G
[Verse 1]
D Bm A"Chevrolet". That's what the faded letters used to say
GOn the chain the dealer gave me
D AOn the day I drove it away
[Verse 2]
D Bm ARoom 202, I didn't turn it in like you're supposed to
G DI was eighteen, she was twenty-two
AIn that spring-break hotel room
GI learned a thing or two
[Chorus]
D AAnd it hangs there on a hook by my front door
DHalf of them don't even work no more
ABut I remember what each one used to be for
G A DOn a ring that holds the keys that unlock me
[Verse 3]
DMaster lock
Bm AI got morе of those than most folks got
G DThis gold one goes to thе gate where we used to drink a lot
AAt the edge of Grandpa's crops
GWhen he sold it, I stole it from underneath that rock
[Chorus]
D AIt hangs there on a hook by my front door
DHalf of them don't even work no more
ABut I remember what each one used to be for
G A G D G AOn a ring that holds the keys that unlock me
[Outro]
G DThis one here's a spare I'll never throw away
G DMama put it there for me, just in case
AI ever came back home one day
G A N.C.Still on the ring that holds the keys that unlock me
