Met this girl called Josephine

And took her up on my machine

We had a little fun
                             Bb
And now we got a little one

Had to get married

Being chased out of town

Found ourselves a place to live

We put all our money down

Eleven floors up in a tower block, happy just to have a home

Nothing really worked out right
                                        C
Things got broke, they stayed that way

None of our friends came round at night
                                Bb
Little Sam got no place to play
                         Gm                        Bb
"We've got to get out of here, Bill," she said
           Gm                       F
"I've been saying it all the while"

When I came home from work that night
      Eb
She'd jumped out the window with our child


Chorus 2:
         Cm         Bb    Eb         Bb      Ab
From our home sweet home, home sweet home

We call it home

When the insurance money came through
                                         C
It seemed dirty, didn't know what to do
                                           C#dim7
Took out the cash, went down to the casino
                               Bb
Down on the wheel on a double
                 Gm          Bb        Gm      F
And I won, yes I won, like I never won before
                                      Eb
Bought myself a country house with an antique carved oak door

It was home sweet home, home sweet home
                 F      Bb                     Bdim7
Just a place to lay our head, think of all the things we said

About in our home sweet home
