[Intro]
G Gm Gm
F G C
[Verse 1]
G Gm GmThere's a boy -- don't know what he's hidin'
F G CHe's got mother's eyes and his daddy's charm, just the right mix
G Gm GmAnd there's a girl -- she knew where to find him
F G CIn the local bar smokin' in the dark, it was perfect timing
[Pre-Chorus 1]
FBut what they both didn't know
Gm CIs how far this thing would go
FAnd they might not want the truth
G/C CBut if they do
[Chorus 1]
G GmPlay 'em our home movies
FIf they wonder who I was
Gm C Gm7 FEven if they don't then play 'em just because
G GmLet 'em see the highlights
FAnd don't forget the lows
Gm C Gm7 FEverybody's got a story no one knows
Gm C Gm7 FSo just let 'em play until the credits roll
[Verse 2]
G Gm GmThere's a story -- I didn't know we'd write it
F G CHowever long it took, it's an open book if you love surprises
G Gm GmThere's a song -- underneath the silence
F G CYou can hear the crowd sing the words out loud in just the right pitch
[Pre-Chorus 2]
FBut what they both didn't know
Gm CIs how far this thing would go
FAnd we might not make it through
G/C CBut if we do
[Chorus 2]
G GmPlay 'em our home movies
FIf they wonder who I was
Gm C Gm7 FEven if they don't then play 'em just because
G GmLet 'em see the highlights
FAnd don't forget the lows
Gm C Gm7 FEverybody's got a story no one knows
Gm C Gm7 FSo just let 'em play until the credits roll
[Bridge]
F CThere's nothing I could be without these memories
F Gm CEven though they might not show the best of me (oh-ohh)
[Chorus 3]
G GmPlay 'em our home movies
FIf they wonder who I was
Gm C Gm7 FEven if they don't then play 'em just because (play 'em just because)
G GmLet 'em see the highlights
FAnd don't forget the lows
Gm C Gm7 FEverybody's got a story no one knows (no one knows)
Gm C Gm7 FSo just let 'em play until the credits roll
