CAPO ON 1ST FRET
-----------------------------
[Intro]
C Em7 D G/B
[Verse 1]
C Em7
It's where I keep my heart
D G/B
Where I plan my routes
C Em7
Where my soul comes from
D
Where I learn to sing the blues
G/B C Em7
Raised on the saving grace
D
I live in love
G/B C Em7
My secret hiding place
D G/B
When the world's too much
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Let the new shine fade
D
Let the lights burn out
C
Let the time slip away
D
And bury me in that ground
[Chorus]
C Em7
When I'm all used up
D G
And I'm old and grey
C Em7
When the well runs dry
D G
And my mind just ain't the same
C Em7
Won't you set me free
D G
Where the tall pines stand
C Em7
Where I was born to be
D G
Back in my homeland
[Verse 2]
C
The world may change
Em7 D
But this whole town's still the same
G/B C
There's that old dirt road
Em7 D
Next to that run down bank
G/B C Em7
There's that beat up truck
D
In my dad's backyard
G/B C
I can still hear it run
Em7 D G/B
When we used to drive it hard
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Let the new shine fade
D
Let the lights burn out
C
Let the time slip away
D
And bury me in that ground
[Chorus]
C Em7
When I'm all used up
D G
And I'm old and grey
C Em7
When the well runs dry
D G
And my mind just ain't the same
C Em7
Won't you set me free
D G
Where the tall pines stand
C Em7
Where I was born to be
D G
Back in my homeland
[Post Chorus]
C Em7
Homeland
D G
Wild and free
C Em7
In my homeland
D Em7
Where I was born to be
[Bridge]
C
Where I keep my heart
D
Where I plan my routes
C
Where my soul comes from
D
Where I run back to
C
Where I keep my heart
D
Where I plan my routes
C
Where my soul comes from
D
Where I run back to
[Chorus]
C Em7
When I'm all used up
D G
And I'm old and grey
C Em7
When the well runs dry
D G
And my mind just ain't the same
C Em7
Won't you set me free
D G
Where the tall pines stand
C Em7
Where I was born to be
D G
Back in my homeland
[Outro]

(Back in my, back in my homeland)
C Em7
In my homeland
D G
(Back in my, back in my homeland)
C Em7
Back in my homeland
D Em7
(Back in my homeland)
C Em7
In my homeland
D G
Where I was born to be
