[Intro]
D D/G
[Verse 1]
D
A corner office was his dream
G2
More like a prison now it seems
Somewhere on the corporate climb
D
He left his warrior behind.
Now he's just a worker at a daily grind,
G2
Steals his years and numbs his mind.
His strength is fading, his dreams are blind
Em7 D
This is not the life he had in mind.
[Interlude]
D D/G
[Verse 2]
D
She lies awake as he's up at night
G2
Staring at his screen that tells him lies
That the grass is greener on the other side
D
So she's at the gym fighting off the years
To be young again and calm her fears
G2
That she'll never be enough for him
Em7 D
Just as a young man catches her eye.
[Chorus 1]
G2 D
Now they're trapped in their own worlds and their own wars
Asus Bm7
With their cell phones and the closed doors
G2 D Bm7
It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems.
G2 Em7
But they're all alone together
D D/G
In the house of their dreams.
[Verse 3]
D
Little sister, she's a sixteen-year-old princess
https://www.coveralia.com/acordes/house-of-their-dreams-casting-crowns.php
Lost somewhere between the swing set
G2
And her brand new crush's chariot awaits
D
And big brother's rooms glowing with trophies that shout his name
G2
But he'd trade all his high school fame
Em7
For some backyard catch with his hero again
[Chorus 2]
G2 D
Now they're trapped in their own worlds and their own wars
Asus Bm7
With their cell phones and the closed doors
G2 D Bm7
It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems.
G2 Em7
But they're all alone together
D D/G
In the house of their dreams.
[Verse 4]
D
So now they're all dressed up in Sunday best
Sit up straight just like the rest
G2 D
And they sing the songs of peace and rest that Jesus freely gives
D
And 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
D/G F#m7 Em7
Their tears tear down the walls as daddy prays
[Chorus 3]
G2 D
We're trapped in our own worlds and our own wars
Asus Bm7
With our cell phones and our closed doors
G2 D Bm7
God, only You can save our family
G2
And on this Rock, we'll build
D/F# Em7
On this Rock, we'll build
D D/G
The house of our dreams
