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

Intro:
[D] [A/C#] [Bm] [G] [A]
[D]A couple miles we're almost there
[A]Smack dab in the middle of nowhere
[Bm]This old place will always feel like [G]home
[D]Man this town has really changed
[A]But I swear it feels the same
[Bm]All up and down these roads we [G]roamed
[A]I wanna [Bm]show you
The [G]livin' that I've done
[A]Just let me [Bm]show you
Where it [G]is that I [A]come from. Right here!
[D]This is where I disc[A/C#]overed love
And [Bm]where I learned about the [A]One above
And [G]where I was [A]young and crazy
[D]This is where I [A/C#]became a man
I [Bm]faced those demons and I [A]took my stand
And [G]where I learned your [A]heart could be broken
[D]And this is [G]where it all went [A]down
This is my old [D]stompin' ground
[D] [A/C#] [Bm] [G] [A]
[D]Over there's where I played ball
[A]Man I felt about ten feet tall
When [Bm]I came up to bat they'd all ba[G]ck up
[D]There we'd hide by the light of the moon
[A]And hit the cars with the water ballons
[Bm]Right there I swear I rolled my[G] truck
[A]I wanna [Bm]show you
The [G]livin' that I've done
[A]Just let me [Bm]show you
Where it [G]is that I [A]come from. Right here!
[D]This is where I disc[A/C#]overed love

And [G]where I learned your [A]heart could be broken
[D]And this is [G]where it all went [A]down
This is my old [D]stompin' ground
[Bm]And I'll never lose those feelings or [F#m]memories
They're a [G]part of me, my legacy. It's my [A]history
[D]This is where I [A/C#]learned to fight
I [Bm]felt the heat until I [A]saw the light
And [G]where I learned that [A]sometimes you don't win
[D]This is where I found [A/C#]my best friend
We [Bm]stuck together through [A]thick and thin
[G]I can't believe the [A]things we did back then
[D] [A/C#]
This is where I discovered love
And [Bm]where I learned about the [A]One above
And [G]where I was [A]young and crazy
[D]And this is [G]where it all went [A]down
This is my old [D]stompin' ground [A/C#] My [Bm]stompin' ground[G][A]
This is my old [D]stompin' ground [A/C#] My old [Bm]stompin' ground[G][A][D]
