I'm not to fond of the other version on here so here's a tab of how I like to play this song

Standard Tuning
CAPO: 6th Fret

Not sure what the chord names are so I'll just call them by what they would be if they 
were played without a capo

      C             F           C         F          Am
   Before you, your mom and dad used to smoke in the Texas sun
   C
   They were young once too
        C        F         C
   And your mom she found Jesus
   F          Am                      C
   While your old man stepped out and drew up his veins

Bridge:
C-F-C-F

        C             F           C
   It's quiet in the house of the old
   F       Am                           C
   You can hear through grinding teeth, clocks taking their toll
         C          F       C
   Cause time has a mind of its own
   F        Am
   Like our sun spinning around
      C
   It wont slow for you now

   C                     Am
   Oh I wanna catch in a song
                 F
   Notes I don't hear yet
                       G
   But I will when I'm gone


   C         F          C
   I've been pouring my heart up
   F              Am
   Up through the floor boards
                          C
   But you don't live here no more


   C                       Am
   Oh you wanna catch in a lens
              F                        G
   Color your green eyes don't see just yet

Bridge:
C-F-C-F

       C
   The horse men
            F              C
   They all blow out their torches
   F     Am                         C
   I can see you still shining out
       C              F         C
   But you sleep in a bed for a giant
   F         Am
   While you wait for your love to come home
                                        C     F     C
   But you don't know, she's not coming back


   C                       Am
   Oh I wanna find out I'm wrong
             F             G
   And every road leads us home
   C                 Am            F
   Oh but I'll never know, 'cause I keep my eyes closed
       G
   And only go where I've been before
