Tuning:  Standard
is, it's a pretty good song.  The tempo is an easy one, more like Lauryn Hill's song 
 E-  F#m- G#m  
(chorus)
Guys, you know you better watch out
Some guys, some guys are only about
That thing that thing that thing
That thing that thing that thing
(verse 1)
Your home is where you're happy
It's not where you're not free
Your home is where you can be what you are
'Cause you were just born to be
Now they'll show you their castles
An' all their diamonds for all to see
But they'll never show you that little peace of mind
'Cause they don't know how to be free
(bridge)
 G#m- F#m  
So burn, burn, burn, all your bridges
Leave, leave, leave your life behind
You can do whatever you want to do
Because your strong in your mind
(chorus)
 E-  F#m- G#m  
Girls, you know you better watch out
Some girls are only about
That thing, that thing, that thing
that thing, that thing, that thing
(verse 2)
And anywhere you might wander
You know you could make that your home
And as long as you got love in your heart
You'll never be alone no no no
You'll never be alone no no no no
(repeat last line and gradually increase tempo until you're at a good clip, then end with)
You'll never never, never be alone
