               Home Away From Home




Tuning: E A D G B E

[Verse 1]
 
E
Watch the heat waves dancing all across the road
   A
As you shake off the school year and ligthen up your load
    E
And head to a place up in the Texas hills
       A
That's sure to set your mind at ease and cure you of your ills
 
     B
It's home
            A               E
Yeah, sweet home away from home
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
E
Summer after summer, we turn boys into men
A
Girls into women, and strangers into friends
E
A little slice of heaven on the shore of our Inks Lake
A
In the land of the sticker burrs and chicken fried steak
 
          B
Well it's home
            A               E
Yeah, sweet home away from home
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
  E
A lifetime ago, it was an empty piece of land
      A
Til a man came along and he built with his own hands
   E
A friendly place of refuge that he'd seen in his dreams
    A
And though the man is gone away, his spirit's here it seems
 
          B
Well it's home
            A               E
Yeah, sweet home away from home
 
 
[Bridge]
 
C#m          B
Day is done, gone the sun
         A                               E
From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky
C#m          B
Day is done, gone the sun
         A                               E
From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky
 
[Verse 4]
 
   E
So sit atop the mountain among the hills and dales
A
Fix your gaze upon the lake where breezes fill the sails
E
Know that God is with us, has been all along
A
Any place you feel at ease is right where you belong
 
           B
Well it's home
            A              E
Yeah, sweet home away from home
 
      B
We're home
            A               E
Yeah, sweet home away from home
