This is a cover Banhart did/does in concert. It combines 'Doo Wop (That Thing)' by Hill with 'Home is Where You're Happy' by Charles Manson. Yep. As unlikely as that is, it's a pretty good song. The tempo is an easy one, more like Lauryn Hill's song song was a bit faster paced).
E - F#m - G#m
(chorus) Guys, you know you better watch out Some guys, some guys are only about That thing that thing that thing That thing that thing that thing
(verse 1) Your home is where you're happy It's not where you're not free Your home is where you can be what you are 'Cause you were just born to be
Now they'll show you their castles An' all their diamonds for all to see But they'll never show you that little peace of mind 'Cause they don't know how to be free
(bridge) G#m - F#m
So burn, burn, burn, all your bridges Leave, leave, leave your life behind You can do whatever you want to do Because your strong in your mind
(chorus) E - F#m - G#m
Girls, you know you better watch out Some girls are only about That thing, that thing, that thing that thing, that thing, that thing
(verse 2) And anywhere you might wander You know you could make that your home And as long as you got love in your heart You'll never be alone no no no You'll never be alone no no no no
(repeat last line and gradually increase tempo until you're at a good clip, then end with)
