This song is pretty much just the same chords throughout.
Intro:
G  G/F#  Em  D  Cadd9  D
Verse: 
GI sit here G/F#on the stairs and Emlisten toD  
The Cadd9night time as the daylight fades aDway
GIt's such a G/F#haunting and faEmmilar tuneD  
And when I Cadd9hear it in the distance I can Dsay
Chorus:
That I'm GhomG/F#e in MassaEmchusetts D  
Where my Cadd9daughters and my wife they wait for Dme
All aGlonG/F#e, but the Emtruth isD  
It's Cadd9where I always am, it's where I long to Dbe
Because I'm GhomG/F#eEm  D  Cadd9  D  
The north shore is where my father lives
I wear my Red Sox hat around the world with pride
But the Berkshires are where my heart is
And when I see them in the distance I could cry
Chorus
Bridge:
EmNyla started Cadd9pre-school, Indie just turned Gtwo
Zoe's just the perDfect mix of me and you
EmThey keep getting Cadd9older, time keeps going Gby
To think about it Dmakes your daddy want to cry
So I just passed the sign that welcomes me to Worthington
Established long before this country came to be
A place that hasn't really changed with time
The way this country that I love it used to be
Chorus
Because I'm home in Massachusetts
Where my hero teaches classes everyday
And where my friends don't treat me different
It's where my family is, It's where I'll always stay
Because I'm home
Good luck---Mike
