Bigger Houses

[Verse 1]

Used to dream about buyin' that bigger house

Sittin' on top of some hill

Losin' sleep about fillin' my bank account

Wonderin' if I ever will

But the older I get, I just care less and less

'Bout keepin' up with people named Jones

If you don't fill it up with somebody that you love

It ain't ever gonna feel like home

[Chorus]

There's always gonna be a higher high

You could chase for the rest of your life

Greener grass in the yard next door

Or a shined-up Chevy little newer than yours

You're never gonna fill an empty cup

If what you got's still not enough

The thing about happiness I've found is

It don't live in bigger houses

[Verse 2]

I can hear the kids makin' little footsteps

Runnin' down the hallway upstairs

I can see the dogs playin' in a backyard

Through the kitchen window right there

Maybe life's kinda more 'bout a swing on the porch

Holdin' her while the sun disappears

Why would I wanna be anywhere else in the world

When my whole world is sittin' right here?

[Chorus]

There's always gonna be a higher high

You could chase for the rest of your life

Greener grass in the yard next door

Or a shined-up Chevy little newer than yours

You're never gonna fill an empty cup

If what you got's still not enough

The thing about happiness I've found is

It don't live in bigger houses

[Bridge]

No, no, no, no, no, no

[Chorus]

There's always gonna be a higher high

You could chase for the rest of your life

Greener grass in the yard next door

Or a shined-up Chevy little newer than yours

You're never gonna fill an empty cup

If what you got's still not enough

The thing about happiness I've found is

It don't live in bigger houses

The thing about happiness I've found is

It don't live in bigger houses

[Outro]

Mm-hmm
