Am G Em C
We were walking down the block when we thought the bomb went off
E Am
And our hearts nearly stopped at the sound
Am G Em C
When we looked and we found that it hit some other crowd
E Am
I was glad it wasn't us, yeah I was proud
Am G Em C
Cause I fall and I break just as easy as an egg
E Am
Yeah, my shell isn't as hard as it seems
Am G Em C
When my insides gush out there's no telling what it's about
E Am
When it'll stop, when it'll seed, when it'll bleed
C G Am
Yeah, I just stay in my home, in my home, in my home
C G Am F G
Yeah, I just stay in my home, in my home, in my home
Am G Em C
Well, I take a look outside at the pretty girls outside
E Am
But I can't make myself say "Hi" because I'm scared
Am G Em C
Because I spend all this time all locked up inside
E Am
It's the only place I know how to bare
Am G Em C
Cause you can go out and meet some girl you can't defeat
E Am
And you think that she must be the one
Am G Em C
Until you're walking down the isle and she takes away your smile
E Am
Boy you wish you hadn't dialed before you wrung
C G Am
Oh you should stay in your home, in your home, in your home
C G Am F
G
Oh you should stay in your home, in your home, in your home
Am G Em C
Well they talk of your past, yeah they said it wouldn't last
E Am
But they're running pretty fast back on their word
Am G Em C
It was gone for a while but it's coming back in style
E Am
Better run back where you're from and join the mass
C G Am
Yeah we'll just stay in our home, in our homes
C G Am C
Yeah we'll just stay in our home, in our homes
