Little boy, 6 years old

                     F
A little too used to bein' alone

Another new mom and dad, another school

                      F
Another house that'll never be home

Am
When people ask him

G                   F
how he likes this place

         Am               G                      F
He looks up and says with a smile upon his face
[Chorus]
                       C
This is my temporary home

                   G
It's not where I belong

             Am        G              F
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through

                C                             G
This is just a stop, on the way to where I'm going

She's lookin' for a job, lookin' for a way out

Someday we'll find a

I'll see you all someday

Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through

                C                             G
This was just a stop, on the way to where I'm going
