G
The Gdimming of the light makes the picture clearer
It's just an old photograph
There's nothing to Dhide
When the D7world was Djust beGginning
I Gmemorized a face so it's not forgotten
I hear the wind whistlin'
Come back anyDtime
And we'll D7mix our Dlives toGgetherC  G  
Heaven Cknows, what keeps mankind aGliveC  G  
Every Chand, goes searching for its Gpartner
In Dcrime, under D7chairs and beDhind Gtables
ConDnecting, to D7places Dwe have Gknown
(I'm looking for a)
GHome, where the wheels are turning
Home, why I keep returning
DHome, where my D7world is Dbreaking in GtwoC  G  
GHome, with the neighbors fighting
Home, always so exciting
DHome, were my D7parents Dtelling the Gtruth?C  G  
CHome, such a funny feeling
GHome, no-one ever speaking
CHome, with our bodies touching
GHome, and the cameras watching
DHome, will inD7fect what Dever you GdoC  G  
Where Dhome, comes to D7life from Dout of the Gblue
GTiny little boats on a beach at sunset
I took a drink from a jar
And into my Dhead
Familiar D7smells Dand GflavorsC  G  
VeGhicles are stuck on the plains of heaven
I see their wheels spinning round
And everyDwhere
I can D7hear those Dpeople GsayingC  G  
That the Ceye, is the measure of the GmanC  G  
You can Cfly, from the stuff that still surGrounds you
Where Dhome, and the D7band keeps Dmarchin' Gon
ConDnecting, to D7every Dliving Gsoul
ComDpassion, for D7things I'll Dnever Gknow
