[Verse]
GWe were out painting Bmroses red without aEmccomplishment
When a Amthorn caught the thread of my Gskin
And it unraveled like Bmbinding from a bible
EmOnly to discover my Amflesh failed at survival
[Pre-Chorus]
GI dont Bmknow about EmyouAm  
But when GI am Bmalone my Embody feels dysAmfunctional
Its Gtrue
Do Bmyou do you think Im a EmfoolAm  
[Verse]
GI came home agBmain to an empty Embed
And all the sheets were Amthrown and on the floor
Like a Gcrazy man had got em Bmtook out all his problems
EmOnly to discover hes Amright back where he started
[Pre-Chorus]
GI dont Bmknow about youEm  Am  
But when GI am Bmalone my Embody feels dysAmfunctional
Its Gtrue
Do Bmyou do you think Im a EmfoolAm  
[Chorus]
GI tell myself Im Bmnot one I am only Emhuman
Right then Amwhy dont I feel Gwhole
Cause if home is where the Bmheart is then I feel pretty Emstupid
My Amheart lies in your Gbones
BmDo you think that Im EmdumbAm  
Cause I call it Glove Bmlove
I call it EmloveAm  
[Verse]
GI dont Bmknow about youEm  Am  
But when GI am Bmalone my Embody is dysfunAmctional
Its Gtrue
You Bmneed a heart to EmmoveAm  
GAnd my Bmheart it belongs to Emyou
[Chorus]

Cause if home is where the Bmheart is then I feel pretty Emstupid
You were Ammeant for me all Galong
BmDo you think that Im EmdumbAm
