Heaven When We're Home


CAPO: 5th Fret

CHORDS (Relative to Capo):

Asus2: x02200
G#: 4x2200

*For the verse pattern, make sure to emphasize the bass notes (A, G#, F#) at the
beginning of each chord.

*The Asus2 and Asus2/G# will each be for two beats, but if you listen carefully,
the Dsus2/F# is for three (leaving only one for the E).

*Chord making help: I use my 4th finger (pinky) for the G# in Asus2/G# and my
thumb for the F# in Dsus2/F#.



F#
Don't know what time it is, I've been up for way too long
            E
and I'm too tired to sleep
F#
I call my mother on the phone, she wasn't home,
            E
and now I'm wandering the street
E
I've been a fool, I've been cruel to myself
Bm
I've been hanging onto nothing when
Asus2
nothing could be worse than hanging on
              F#
And something tells me there must be
                      E
something better than all this

F#
I've fallen many times in love and every time
                   E
it's been with the wrong man
F#
Still I'm out there living one day at a time
              E
and doing the best I can
E
Cause we've all made mistakes
that seem to lead us astray
E
But every time they helped to get us where we are today
           G#
And that's a good a place as any
         E
and it's probably where we're best off anyway

E
It's a long and rugged road
Asus2
and we don't now where it's headed
E
But we know it's going to get us where we're going
E
And when we find what we're looking for
Asus2
we'll drop these bags and search no more
E
'Cause it's going to feel like heaven when we're home
E
It's going to feel like heaven when we're home

[Same verse and chorous chords for rest of song]

There's no such thing as perfect,
and if there is we'll fnd it when we're good and dead
Trust me I've been looking
bu tonight I think I'll go and take a bath instead
And then maybe I'll walk a while
and feel the earth beneath me
They say if you stop looking
it doesn't matter if you find it
And whose to say that even if I did
it's what I'm really looking for

It's a long and rugged road
and we don't now where it's headed
But we know it's going to get us where we're going
And when we find what we're looking for
we'll drop these bags and search no more
'Cuz it's going to feel like heaven when we're home
It's going to feel like heaven when we're home
