(Difford/Tilbrook) From the 1985 studio album, Cosi Fan Tutti Frutti. ++ This is transcribed from the acoustic performance by Glenn Tilbrook at Hebden Bridge, 2014. [Verse 1]
E
I’m faced with the facts
And a fist full of threats I stand quite amused At the end of the bed
            G#m   A
I have no defense

                B
For what I have said

                A
As a handful of love

          G#m             F#m
Whacks me right round the head
[Verse 2]
      F#           E
She’s growling and stalking
And grabs from a pile A book that she throws And it missed by a mile
              G#m     A
I’m holding a pillow

                B
And as naked as sin

                A
I’m backed to a corner

       G#m        F#m
With a wastepaper bin

               D    C#7
Then up on the mattress

                 F#m   Em
There’s no place to go
N.C. I’m guilty yes guilty [Chorus]
                          G     A    D
But there’s no place like home

                      G     D
There's no place like home

A    D
Home
G D A D B [Verse 3]
             E
I rewind the hours
To see what went wrong I plead for forgiveness And I’m hit like a gong It seems that I’m guilty
A                B
Of smiling too long

               A
When recalling lovers

     G#m      F#m
That now have long gone

                  D       C#7
I’m guilty you’re guilty

             F#m
So let me be stoned
N.C The past is the present [Chorus]
                           G     A  D
When there’s no place like home

                      G     D
There's no place like home

A    D   A
Home
[Bridge]
G            D
Off with the shoes

      C#7             F#m
And a whack round the head

     Am
Your ear rings like a phone

G         D  C#7
Some explana-tion

      F#m
Might patch and mend

  A
A love that’s lost control
[Chorus]
B                         G    A  D  A
Now there’s no place like home
[Outro]
              G    A  D  A
No place like home

              G    A  D  A
No place like home

              G    A  D  A
No place like home

E
No place like home (repeat x4)
