Interpretation by Stephen O’Hora


It’s played with some flourishes on the G chord at the end of every other line:

Strum: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? (?) ? ? ?

e|-----3----3--3--3--3--3--3--3-----3--3--3-|
B|-----0----0--1--0--1--0--0--1-----0--0--0-|
G|-----0----0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----0--0--0-|
D|-----0----0--2--0--2--0--0--2-----0--0--0-|
A|-----2----2--X--2--X--2--2--X-----2--2--2-|
E|--3--3----3--3--3--3--3--3--3-----3--3--3-|
(G) (G)(C)(G)(C)(G)(G)(C) (G)

He's basically just moving back and forth between G-shape and C-shape really quickly. It's easy to get the
rhythm if you listen to the song.


[Verse 1]

F C G C
Right 'round the corner down by the canyon
F C G
I met a man who lost his way
F C G C
Said "I’m Saul, born the son of a sailor
F C G
Who never showed me his face
F C G C
My daddy’s gone and my momma met her maker
F C G
Oh to hell with that place"


[Pre-Chorus 1]

F C F C
So I said "Quit your talking, your sideways walking
F C G
Time to find another path to take
F C F C
Quit your whining your blood-shot crying
F C G
Faking like you're dying never pays"


[Chorus 1]

G
Just go ho----me
F C G
You need you some home
C F C G
Oh you need you some home


[Verse 2]

F C G C
Her name was Peggy Sue and her Daddy hung the moon
F C G
In her eyes he could no wrong
F C G (one strum down)
But then he started drinking like there’s a message in the bottle
F C G
Now Daddy’s painting Peggy black and blue


[Pre-Chorus 2]

F C
She closes her eyes
F C
Through the hero's demise
F C G
Holds to a hope beyond the sky
F C
She takes a breath
F C
Weight comes off her chest
F C G
She finds a way to weather through the storm


[Chorus 2]

G
She cried out "Ho----me
F C G
I need me some home
C F C G
Oh I need me some home"


[Verse 3]

F C G C
I found myself on a train to California
F C G
At twenty-five years of age
F C G (one strum down)
Sat beside me was a lovely rose, a wanderer
F C G
Two's always better they say


[Pre-Chorus 3]

F C
So we made our plans
F C
She gave me her hand
F C G
We ain’t got no time for looking back
F C
I was bruised and beaten
F C
Lost for many reasons
F C G
Only love would make you understand


[Chorus 3]

G
Ho----me
F C G
I love me some home
C F C G
I love me some home
F C G C
Yeah I love me some home
F C G


[Ending]

F C
We're all bruised and beaten
F C
Lost on account of many reasons
F C G
But only love will make you understand
G N.C. F C G
Ho------me I love me some home
C F C G
Oh I love me some home
F C G
Yeah I love me some home
C F C G
Oh I love me some home
C G C
Love me some home!
