N.C. This is MY interpretation, not intended to be an exact replica of how Ani plays it. It's just an alternative option. I wrote this version to be fingerpicked. If you want to, you can see how I do it on YouTube at https://youtu.be/Wt3mPoHjXGs. [Intro] D G A D D G A [Verse 1] D G How can I go home A D With nothing to say D G A I know you're going to look at me that way D G And say what did you do out there A D And what did you decide D G You said you needed time A And you had time
[Interlude] D G A D D G A [Verse 2] D G You are a china shop A D And I am a bull D G You are really good food A And I am full D G I guess everything is timing A D I guess everything's been said D G A So I am coming home with an empty head [Interlude] D G A D D G A [Verse 3] D G You'll say did they love you or what A D I'll say they love what I do D G A The only one who really loves me is you D G And you'll say girl did you kick some butt A D And I'll say I don't really remember D G But my fingers are sore A And my voice is too [Interlude] D G A D D G A [Verse 4] D G You'll say it's really good to see you A D You'll say I missed you horribly D G You'll say let me carry that A Give that to me D G And you will take the heavy stuff A D And you will drive the car D G A And I'll look out the window and make jokes About the way things are [Interlude] D G A D D G A [Verse 5] D G How can I go home A D With nothing to say D G A I know you're going to look at me that way D G And say what did you do out there A D And what did you decide D G You said you needed time A And you had time [Outro]
