Intro  
G C9 2x  

G                 C9  
I'm staring out into the night,  
G                  C9  
Trying to hide the pain.  
G                C9  
I'm going to the place where love  
    Em7                D           C9  
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.  
        Em7               D                 C9  
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain.  

G              D  
Well I'm going home,  
            C9            D  
Back to the place where I belong,  
               Em7             D               C9  
And where your love has always been enough for me.  
G               D  
I'm not running from.  
      C9                   D  
No, I think you got me all wrong.  
   Em7              D                C9  
I don't regret this life I chose for me.  
         Em7               D                 C9  
But these places and these faces are getting old,  
              G           C9  
So I'm going home.  
               G          C9  
Well I'm going home.  
G                      D 
The miles are getting longer, it seems,  
    C9              D 
The closer I get to you.  
 G                                   D 
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.  
         C9             D 
But your love, it makes true.  
                 Em7 
And I don't know why.  
             D                     C9 
You always seem to give me another try.  

Repeat Chorus  

D                         C9  
Be careful what you wish for,  
                             G  
'Cause you just might get it all.  
                      C9  
You just might get it all,  
                         D 
And then some you don't want.  
                          C9  
Be careful what you wish for,  
                             G  
'Cause you just might get it all.  
                       C9  
You just might get it all, yeah.  

Em D C9  2x  

Repeat Chorus
