G    Am     Cmaj7           Am
Home ... is where I want to be

     Cmaj7  G          Am      Cmaj7   Am
Pick me     up ... and turn me round

  Cmaj7 G    Am  Cmaj7            Am
I feel  numb ... born with a weak heart

Cmaj7 G               Am     Cmaj7   Am
 I    guess I must be having fun
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 G            Am          Cmaj7   Am
The   less we say about it the better

Cmaj7 G             Am     Cmaj7   Am
      Make it up as we go along

Cmaj7 G           Am      Cmaj7       Am
      Feet on the ground, head in the sky

Cmaj7 G       Am               Cmaj7     Am        Cmaj7
      It's ok I know nothing's wrong ... nothing
[Chorus]
G   Am  Cmaj7    Am    Cmaj7 |  G  Am  |  Cmaj7  Am    Cmaj7 |
 Hi yo ... I got plenty of   time

G   Am  Cmaj7      Am        Cmaj7 |  G  Am  |  Cmaj7  Am    Cmaj7 |
 Hi yo ... you got light in your    eyes                   (And you’re ...)

           G        Am     Cmaj7    Am     Cmaj7
And you're standing here beside me

G          Am         Cmaj7    Am     Cmaj7
I love the passing of time

G         Am    Cmaj7        Am     Cmaj7
Never for money - always for love

G            Am      Cmaj7    Am   Cmaj7 [ G ]
Cover up and say goodnight -  say good   night

G    Am     Cmaj7           Am
Home ... is where I want to be

    Cmaj7 G           Am    Cmaj7   Am
But I     guess I'm already there

  Cmaj7 G    Am      Cmaj7         Am
I come  home ... she lifted up her wings

Cmaj7 G                    Am     Cmaj7     Am   Cmaj7
I     guess that this must be the place
[Verse 4]
G            Am        Cmaj7    Am   Cmaj7
I can't tell one from another

    G              Am       Cmaj7    Am   Cmaj7
Did I find you, or you find me?

G           Am     Cmaj7        Am
There was a time before we were born

Cmaj7 G             Am             Cmaj7   Am    Cmaj7 [ G ]
If    someone asks, this where I'll be ... where I'll   be
[Chorus]
G   Am  Cmaj7 Am        Cmaj7 |  G  Am  |  Cmaj7  Am    Cmaj7 |
 Hi yo ... we drift in and     out

G   Am  Cmaj7   Am   Cmaj7 |  G  Am  |  Cmaj7  Am    Cmaj7 |
 Hi yo ... sing into my     mouth

     Cmaj7 G         Am       Cmaj7 Am        Cmaj7
Out of     all those kinds of people

G         Am          Cmaj7    Am   Cmaj7
You got a face with a view

G            Am     Cmaj7         Am     Cmaj7
 I'm just an animal looking for a home and

G               Am          Cmaj7     Am   Cmaj7
 Share the same space for a minute or two

        G       Am      Cmaj7        Am   Cmaj7
And you love me till my heart stops

G       Am       Cmaj7    Am   Cmaj7
Love me till I'm dead

G                Am  Cmaj7             Am   Cmaj7
 Eyes that light up, eyes look through you

G            Am           Cmaj7         Am   Cmaj7
Cover up the blank spots, hit me on the head like a ...
