[Intro]
 G Am7 B7m Am7 x2

[Verse 1]
G   Am7       B7m             Am7
Home     is  where I want to be
        G      Am7      B7m   Am7
Pick me up and turn me round
       G    Am7       B7m              Am7
I feel numb -        born with a weak heart
  G               Am7       B7m         Am7
I guess I must be having fun

[Bridge]
    G             Am7          B7m     Am7
The less we say a-bout it the better
G             Am7      B7m             Am7
Make it up as we go a-long
G           Am7      B7m         Am7
Feet on the ground, Head in the sky
G        Am7               B7m       Am7
It's ok, I know nothing's wrong . . nothing

[Chorus]
G  Am7      B7m   Am7        G   Am7       B7m   Am7
Hi yo,      I got plenty of time
G  Am7      B7m      Am7             G   Am7       B7m   Am7
Hi yo,      you got light in your eyes

[Post-chorus]
           G        Am7      B7m    Am7
And you're standing here be-side me
G          Am7         B7m   Am7
I love the passing of time
G         Am7        B7m         Am7
Never for money -    Always for love
G            Am7       B7m         Am7
Gover up and say good-night . . . say goodnight

G   Am7       B7m   Am7

[Verse 2]
G    Am7     B7m             Am7
Home  -  is where I want to be
      G            Am7      B7m   Am7
But I guess I'm al-ready   there
       G     Am7      B7m           Am7
I come home   -  she lifted up her wings
G                    Am7      B7m   Am7
Guess that this must be the  place

[Bridge]
  G          Am7         B7m   Am7
I can't tell one from a-nother
    G              Am7         B7m   Am7
Did I find you, or you find me?
G           Am7       B7m            Am7
There was a time,    Before we were born
   G             Am7                 B7m      Am7
If someone asks, this is where I'll be . . . where I'll

[Chorus]
G  Am7      B7m   Am7           G   Am7       B7m   Am7
Hi yo,        We drift in and out
G  Am7      B7m   Am7      G   Am7       B7m   Am7
Hi yo,      sing into my mouth

[Post-chorus]
       G         Am7       B7m   Am7
Out of all those kinds of people
G         Am7           B7m   Am7
You got a face with a view
G           Am7       B7m           Am7
I'm just an animal,  looking for a home
G              Am7          B7m       Am7
Share the same space for a minute or two

        G       Am7      B7m         Am7
And you love me till my heart stops
G       Am7         B7m   Am7
Love me till I'm dead
G               Am7       B7m                Am7
Eyes that light up,       eyes look through you
G            Am7           B7m           Am7
Gover up the blank spots, hit me on the head

[Outro]
   G       Am7      B7m         Am7
Ah ooh
Ah ooh
