Start Jamming...
Thank you very much for bringing me back.
This is the part of the set where I have no idea what I'm gonna play.
I just start playing.
Except for this [Gb] song, because it's a different team.
[Db] I don't know.
Whatever's gonna [G] happen.
[D]
[F] [D]
[F] [C] [G]
[A] [Em]
[G] [Am] [G]
Think I'm [F] gonna stay [C] home
[F]
Have [C] myself a home [G] life
[C]
Sitting in the slow [G] mo
[F]
[G] Listening [C] to the [G] daylight
[F]
[C] I am not a nomad
I [Am] am not a rocket [C] man
I was born a [F] house cat
By the [F] slide of my mother's hand
Think I'm gonna [Am] stay home
[G] I [F] want to live in a C2F circle
[C] I want [F] to live on [C] the side of a [Am] square
[C] I used to be in my [Am]
M2C
[G] You'll never find me cause my name is in there [Eb] Home [F] life
Been holding out for the home life
[Eb] My [F] home [Am] life
[G]
[Am]
[G] I wanna [F] see the [G] end [Am] day
[G] I wanna [C] guess her [G] last [Am] name
[G] Finish on a [Am] Friday
[C] Sitting in traffic on the [G] highway
I refuse [Am] to [G] believe
[F] That [G] my life's [Am] gonna be
[G]
[Am] [G] Just some broken [Am] kind of [G] celebrity
[Am] [G] Never [Am] to lean into [D] anything [Am] when we're rolling closer [Eb] Home life
Been holding out for the home life
My
[C] home [Am] life
[C]
About [Am] to tell you the truth so check it [G] out
[C] I [Eb] can tell you this much
I will marry just once
And [Bb] if it doesn't work
I'll give her half of my stuff
[G] It's fine with me
We [A] said eternity
[Eb] I will go to my grave
With the life that I gave
[Bb] Not just a melody line
On a radio wave [G] It dissipates
It soon [A] evaporates
But damn [Eb] it still feels great
[Eb]
[C] I want to live [G] in the center [F] of a [G] circle
I [Am] want to live [D] on the side [Am] of a square
[C] I'd love to watch [D] when we both [Am] can't [G] talk
But I [Am] got to leave it [D] cause my ride [F] is here
And [Eb] my home life
[Bb] And my you take the home life
And my you take the home life
You take the home [F] life
Take [Eb] my hand
[F]
Take my hand
Look me in the eyes now darling
And try to understand
[Eb] I'm a good man
When I'm standing still I'm too relaxed
[Bb] I'm a good man
And I think that's why I stick around
[Eb] [Bb] But we both know
And we got so
I'll call you up from some [Eb] place
All self-righteous and arrogant
And ask you how you're doing
And [F] be so caught up in my own stuff
I will [Bb] sense the weakness in you
Cause you've been staying in the [Eb] same house
In the same room
Looking around at all my [Bb] stuff
Speaking for me and saying
We don't know where he is
[C] And you hang up the phone
And you [Eb] lay in the bed
And I'll hang up the phone
And I'll go out and stare
And I'll be thinking of you
But you [Eb] won't know
Cause your brain won't let you have it
[Bb]
And all your [Eb] friends at work
They'll tell you
That I'm straying, I'm straying
And [Bb] you're just a stupid lunatic
For staying but I know
[Eb] I'm in the middle of nowhere
Fifty miles to [Bb] nothing behind me
Fifty miles to something in front of me
Laying in my bunk
Home sick [Eb] and car sick
And music sick and
Dreaming about the whole life
Dreaming about my whole life
Dreaming about making you [Bb] my wife
Dreaming about the [Eb] whole life
[G] Dreaming about [Bb] the whole life
[Eb]
You take the [Bb] whole life
Oh [Gm] I come back for [Eb] the whole life
Just me and you and the [D] whole life
I promise someday [G] soon I'll [Am] Lie
Whole life
[G] [Am] Whole life
[G] [Am] Whole [F] life [Am] Whole [C] life
[F]
[G] [Bb]
