      F#                    B            F#
Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
 B           F#         C#
Come around sundown to hear the sound
 F#                          B       F#
Kids and the crickets under pinkish skies
 B       F#                C#        F#
Swing on by 'cause we're drinkin' tonight

Well, in my mind, trees line the drive
There's a kind lovin' lady belly laughin' inside
And in the mornin' while we're drinkin' brew
She'll say, "The city ain't nothin' like the outskirts with you"

Chorus:
      B                  F#                            C#           B
With fireflies and some schemin' eyes we'll turn this house into a home
  B                      F#                  C#               D#m
Then we'll grin in the driveway, hell your smile outdoes the dawn
 B      F#          C#            D#m
Hol-old on, hope is on the way-aay
        B           F#                       C#            B
Oh, I swear-ear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day

Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
Where the wind chimes sing to the porch swing crowd
June into August, August to May
With the sun beatin' down, no snow in the way

The smell of fresh-cut grass in the yard
I don't care who you are, drink a fifth, bring your heart
You put down a tailgate, I'll put down a tune
'Cause out in the 'skirts, we move and shake with the moon

Chorus:
With fireflies and some schemin', I'll turn this house to a home
That old grin in the driveway, how your smile outdoes the dawn
Hold on, hope is on the way
Oh, I swear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day
Oh, I swear to God I'll take you to the outskirts one day
With fireflies and some schemin', I'll turn this house to a home
That old grin in the driveway, how your smile outdoes the dawn
Hold on, hope is on the way
Oh, I swear to God we'll make it to the outskirts one day
Oh, I swear to God we'll make it to the outskirts one day
