Lyrics

You know I’m a (C)dream er,

but my (Em)heart’s of gold.

I had to (C7)run a way high so I (F)would n’t come home low.

Just when (C)things went right, it does n’t mean they were (Em)al ways wrong.

Just take this (C7)song and you’ll nev er be (F)left all a lone.

Take me to your (C)heart;

feel me in your (Em)bones.

Just one more (C7)night and I’m com ing off this (F)long and wind ing road.

I’m on my (Ab)way,

I’m on my (Bb)way;

home sweet (C)home.

To night, to night, I’m on my (Ab)way,

I’m on my (Bb)way;

home sweet (C)home.

You know that I (C)seen

too man y ro (Em)man tic dreams

up in (C7)lights, fall ing off the (F)sil ver screen.

My heart’s like an (C)o pen book for the whole (Em)world to read.

Some times (C7)noth ing keeps me to geth er (F)at the seams.

I’m on my (C)home.

Home sweet (Ab)home.

Home sweet (C)home.

Home sweet (Ab)home.

Home sweet

Ooh, I’m on my (Ab)way,

I’m on my (Bb)way;

home sweet (C5)home.

Yeah, I’m on my (Ab)way.

Just set me (Bb)free; home sweet (C5)home.

Hmm,

hmm,

hmm,

hmm.
