This is how I would play the intro on
the ACOUSTIC guitar.

Intro:
[A/C#]
A couple miles we’re almost there
Smack dab in the middle of nowhere
This old place will always feel like
home
Man this town has really changed
But I swear it feels the same
All up and down these roads we
roamed
I wanna
show you
The
livin’ that I’ve done
Just let me
show you
Where it
is that I
come from. Right here!
This is where I disc[A/C#]overed love
And
where I learned about the
One above
And
where I was
young and crazy
This is where I [A/C#]became a man
I
faced those demons and I
took my stand
And
where I learned your
heart could be broken
And this is
where it all went
down
This is my old
stompin’ ground
[A/C#]
Over there’s where I played ball
Man I felt about ten feet tall
When
I came up to bat they’d all ba
ck up
There we’d hide by the light of the moon
And hit the cars with the water ballons
Right there I swear I rolled my
truck
I wanna
show you
The
livin’ that I’ve done
Just let me
show you
Where it
is that I
come from. Right here!
This is where I disc[A/C#]overed love
And
where I learned about the
One above
And
where I was
young and crazy
This is where I [A/C#]became a man
I
faced those demons and I
took my stand
And
where I learned your
heart could be broken
And this is
where it all went
down
This is my old
stompin’ ground
And I’ll never lose those feelings or
memories
They’re a
part of me, my legacy. It’s my
history
This is where I [A/C#]learned to fight
I
felt the heat until I
saw the light
And
where I learned that
sometimes you don’t win
This is where I found [A/C#]my best friend
We
stuck together through
thick and thin
I can’t believe the
things we did back then
[A/C#]
This is where I discovered love
And
where I learned about the
One above
And
where I was
young and crazy
And this is
where it all went
down
This is my old
stompin’ ground [A/C#] My
stompin’ ground
This is my old
stompin’ ground [A/C#] My old
stompin’ ground
