A Place To Call Home Chords

   
       B         E              G#m        F#
I was out the 
door like nothing was lost.

       B         E              G#m        F#
   Wanted my freedom no matter what the cost.

       B         E              G#m        F#
   It made no difference what anyone said.

      B         E              G#m        F#
   I didn't follow my heart I followed my head.

       B         E              G#m        F#
   Well, a man is an island but the water is deep,

       B         E              G#m        F#
   and the shore on the other side is ragged and steep.

      B         E              G#m        F#
   Well, I've built my castle for just one man,

       B         E              G#m        F#
   without the love of a woman. It's made out of sand.

      E                     F#
   A tower of strength, with noone around

       G#m                C#m
   to pick me up when it all came down.

        E                  F#
   Well, I should known, we all need a place to call home.


B E G#m F# x4


   Well, you've travelled the highways and you've travelled the world.
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/joey_tempest/a_place_to_call_home_crd_ver_2.html ]
   There ain't much left you haven't seen or heard.

   To look for perfection is a lonley old ride,

   it takes a whole lot of of courage and a whole lot of pride.

   And then one day when you really care

   she touches your soul, but you're far too scared.

   Well, I should have known, we all need a place to call home.

    E              C#m      B           F#m

   I'm trying every day to find out more about myself.

    E              C#m      B           F#m               E
                    
   Learning how to love, now I need it from somebody else.


       E    G#m    B     F#  (2x)   then F#      
    

4. (Same as verse) Come poets and writers, come spare me some time.

   Come tell me the reason, come tell me the rhyme.

   When you look for independence and you get what you want,

   how come you look back thinking what have I done?

   But time and again it dawns on me,

   it's the price we pay for liberty.

                                                            B F# 

   Well, I should have known, we all need a place to call home.

                             
      E                               F#                      

   God, I miss you tonight, we all need a place to call (home.)

   B E G#m F# (a couple of times then fades away)
