Home Chords by Stephanie Mills

_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] When I think of home, I think of a resting place.
[Cm] A place where there's peace, [G] quiet, and serenity.
[A] And that's where some of my friends have gone.
[G] Friends who have traveled with me through my wonderful [C] experience in Oz.
[G] A journey I'll never forget.
[A] _ [C] When I think of home, I think of a place where [Bb]
there's love _ overflowing.
_ [C] I wish I was home, I wish I was back there.
With [Bb] the things I've been knowing.
_ [F] When that makes the tall [G] grass bend into [F] leaves.
Suddenly the rain drops that [G] fall, they have on me.
[Em] Sprinkling [A] _ the [Am] sea _
[Dm] makes it [D] all [Gm] clean. _ _
_ _ [C] Maybe there's a chance for me to go back.
Now that [Bb] I have some direction.
_ _ [G] [C] It sure would be nice to be back at home where [F] [Gm] there's _ [Bb] love, affection.
[F] And [Am] just maybe I'll [G] convince time to slow up.
[F] Give me enough [G] time, oh, in my _ _ _ [Em] lifetime, be my [A]
friend.
_ _ [Am] [C] And let me start [D] _
[Gm] again.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [C] _
Suddenly my world's gone and changed its face.
And I [Bb] still know where I'm _ going.
_ [C] I have had my mind spun around in stage again.
[Bb]
Watched it grow.
_ _ And oh, [C]
I'm blessing God.
[F] [G] Please don't make me go.
To know if [Dm] we should [G] believe the things [A] that we see.
Tell [Dm] us, should we try and stay?
Or _ [C] _ _ [F] would it be [Bb] better just to let _ _ [C] _ _ [Am] _ _
this [F] world [G] _ _ might be [Em] our sea?
_ [A] _ _ [E] But [Am] talk [Dm] to me, _ _ [C] _ the story's [Bb] correct.
_ It's real [C] to me.
[F] _
_ _ _ [G] And so _ what's the fun?
_ [Db] _ _ [C] _ [Am] A world [Dm] _ _ _ might [Fm] be awesome. _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Gm] Like _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] _ [Gm] _
_ a [C] little _ _ _ [Am] _
beach.

_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [D] _ _ [Gm] _
_ With [C] a _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ [C] little. _ _ _ _ _
_ Get [Cm] tired.
[Gm] _ _ [Ab] _ [Gm] _
