one place
everything but the girl

A
A summer evening; I walk past the window,
D
Baby's crying; Someone's cooking dinner;
            A
There's laughter on the TV
Someone's learning the violin.
E
How at home, it heals
    D
At times like this, I feel that...

CHORUS:
A                                   D
I would like to live like anybody else
E
In one place
       A                                      D
And I could be happy and fulfilled
E
In one place

       A
So I get the map out
And draw a line of where we've been
D
It goes thru sea and sky
A
Twenty-five planes this year
                       D
And it's only July...
           E
This is not some Bible, like on the road
      D
It's just a song about coming home
And whether...

CHORUS:
A                                   D
I would like to live like anybody else
E
In one place
       A                                      D
And I could be happy and fulfilled
E
In one place

       E
And you know that I have found
              D
That I'm happiest weaving from town to town
                         E
And you know Bruce said
we should keep moving 'round
           D                                                  A
Maybe we all get too tied down, I don't know
                   D
Hell, I don't know
                      A
I'm happy to be home (Still alive)
                    D
Happy to be home...

E
In the end, if you take care
D
You can be happy or unhappy anywhere

CHORUS:
       A                                   D
And I think we maybe all rely too much
E
On one place
A                                    D
I know I never would deny the need
E
For one place

       A
So I get the map out (get the map out)
           D
Yeah I get the map out (get the map out)
       A
C'mon, get the map out (get the map out)
D
Get the map out (get the map out)

(repeat & fade)
