A HEART NEEDS A HOME
Richard Thompson
(guitar capo 3rd fret to play with "Hokey Pokey" recording)
(I sometimes use alternate chords in parentheses)
[D]I [C]know the [G]way that [Em]I feel a[G]bout you
[Em]
I'm [(C/G)]never gonna run a[(G)]way
I'm [C/G]never gonna run a[G]way
I [D]never [C]knew the [G]way when [Em]I lived with[G]out you
[Em]
I'm [(C/G)]never gonna run a[(G)]way
I'm [C/G]never gonna run a[G]way
[D]I came to you when no [C]one could [G]hear me
[C] [G] [Am] [D]
I'm [(C)]sick and [(G)]weary of [(Em)]being a[(D)]lone[(D/C)][(D/B)][(D/A)]
[D]Empty streets and [C]hungry [G]faces
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
The [(C)]world's no [(G)]place when you're [(Em)]on your [(C)]own[(C/B)]
[G] [Em]
[(Am)]A heart needs a [(D)]home
[D]
Some people say that I should forget you
I'm never gonna be a fool
I'm never gonna be a fool
A better life, they say, if I'd never met you
I'm never gonna be a fool
I'm never gonna be a fool
Tongues talk fire and eyes cry rivers
Indian givers, hearts of stone
Paper ships and painted faces
The world's no place when you're on your own
A heart needs a home
A HEART NEEDS A HOME
