Intro:
Em C D
Em C D G
Verse 1:
C Em C G Em
They say home is the place where your heart is
Am C G Em
Then I am home now, though I am far away
C Em C G Em
For so long I've let the forest guard it
Am C D
And now it's begging me to stay
Em C D
And I'm trying my best to be tough
Em C D
To pretend I am strong and can siphon it off
Em A
But I'm not who I wanted to be
C G D G
In my heart I belong in a house by the sea
Verse 2:
C Em C G Em
They say home is a place where you're needed
Am C G Em
Then I am home now, but I am leaving
C Em C G Em
To feel my feet being kissed by the seaweed
Am C D
And I will be silent and kiss it back
Em C D
This is not who I want you to see
Em C D
It's just adding on weight to the darkness in me
Em A
And from the little I have understood
C G D G
I believe that a house by the sea would do good
Verse 3:
C Em C G Em
They say home is a place you can choose to be
Am C G Em
And I've decided to carry home inside me
C Em C G Em
So it's not really as if I am leaving
Am C D
It's more like something pulling me
Em C D
Because behind everything that I do
Em C D
I just want to forget, want to carry this through
Em A
Fill my lungs with the sweet summer air
C G D G
In my heart, in my mind I am already there
Verse 4:
Em C D
Yeah behind everything that I do
Em C D
I just want to come home and lay down beside you
Em A
And then I'll be who I wanted to be
C G D G
In my heart I belong in a house by the sea
