The Wailin' Jennys
Heaven When We're Home


CAPO: 5th Fret

CHORDS (Relative to Capo):

Asus2: x02200
Asus2/G#: 4x2200
Dsus2/F#:  200320
E:  022100
Bm: x24432

*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#.



Asus2           Asus2/G#              Dsus2/F#
Don't know what time it is, I've been up for way too long
            E
and I'm too tired to sleep
Asus2     Asus2/G#      Dsus2/F#
I call my mother on the phone, she wasn't home,
            E
and now I'm wandering the street
Bm                          E
I've been a fool, I've been cruel to myself
Bm
I've been hanging onto nothing when
E                                   Asus2
nothing could be worse than hanging on
              Asus2/G#       Dsus2/F#
And something tells me there must be
                      E
something better than all this

Asus2       Asus2/G#      Dsus2/F#
I've fallen many times in love and every time
                   E
it's been with the wrong man
Asus2         Asus2/G#     Dsus2/F#
Still I'm out there living one day at a time
              E
and doing the best I can
Bm                   E
Cause we've all made mistakes
that seem to lead us astray
Bm                                   E
But every time they helped to get us where we are today
           Asus2             Asus2/G#
And that's a good a place as any
         Dsus2/F#                      E
and it's probably where we're best off anyway

E
It's a long and rugged road
Dsus2/F#                    Asus2
and we don't now where it's headed
Dsus2/F#                  A                  E
But we know it's going to get us where we're going
E
And when we find what we're looking for
Dsus2/F#                  Asus2
we'll drop these bags and search no more
Dsus2/F#                       A                 E
'Cause it's going to feel like heaven when we're home
Dsus2/F#                E                 Asus2    Asus2/G#    Dsus2/F#  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
