Hardest Part (Bluegrass Version)

[Verse 1]
Down by the water
Where the auburn leaves were shinin'
Holding hands with my father
And I swear I saw him crying

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause it's been so long
And the day's soon gone

[Chorus]
And the hardest part of going home
Is facin' that you're gettin' older
And everything you've ever known is over
And all the paths are overgrown
The sun is down, it's gettin' colder
And everything you've ever known is over

[Verse 2]
In your eyes, I see the fire
That so long ago was burnin'
Through our smilеs, we try to hide it
All the yеars that we've been hurtin'

[Pre-Chorus]
We don't get too long
That's why I'm holdin' on

[Chorus]
And the hardest part of going home
Is facin' that you're gettin' older
And everything you've ever known is over, hmm-mhm
And all the paths are overgrown
The sun is down, it's gettin' colder
And everything you've ever known is over, is over

[Chorus]
Yeah, the hardest part of going home
Is facin' that you're gettin' older
And everything you've ever known is over, is over
And all the paths are overgrown
Sun is down, it's getting colder
And everything you've ever known is over, is over, is over
