You Remind Me of Home
Ben Gibbard / "Home Vol. 5"
Tabbed by: Keith Little
The previously submitted tab for this song was based on a live performance.
This is the studio version which, evidently, is played a bit different.

"...wasting your life"
[Song]
G C Am
You remind me of home: the paint cracks when the water leaks
C G
from the rusty pipes that are just beneath my feet.
G D Am
You remind me of home: the heater's warm but fills the room with a
C G
potpourri of dust and gas fumes.
G C Am
You remind me of home: a broken bed with dirty sheets that creaks
C G
when I am shifting in my sleep.
G D Am
You remind me of home: in a suburban town with nothing to do,
C G
patiently waiting for something to happen.
Em G (Riff I)
But the foundation is crumbling
Em G (Riff II)
and becoming one with the ground
Em G (Riff I)
while you lay there in slumber...
Em G (Riff III)
You're wasting your life. Wasting your life. (repeat)
G C Am
You remind me of home: sitting on a thrift store couch,
C G
I'm trying to get this all down
