D                                
I gotta get home there's a guard in to tend   
                                                                   Em    
There's fruit on the ground and the birds have all moved back into my   
addict   
Whistle and static   
                                                                  D  
And the young learn to fly I will patch all the holes back again   
I can't believe that my lime tree is dead   
                                                               Em  
I thought it was sleeping I guess I got fed up  with not being fed   
And I'm being too   
                                                          D   
I keep feeding my belly and hope that my time isn't soon   

D  
So I try to understand  what I  
Em  
can't hold in my hand  and where  
G  
ever we are   
Home is there too 
  
D  
And if you can try to find it to  cause this  
Em  
place is overgrowing to wax and gloom   
G  
Home is where ever we are if there's nothing to   
  
D  
In the back of our house  there's a trail that went in   
And walking so far that it grew back in   
    Em  
But there's no trail when the gras growing tall and  
get around my shade   
                               D  
and ..... with time once again   
    Em   
But I'm bound to lose we bound if time don't win   
  
D  
I gotta get home there's a guard in to tend   
All the seeds from the fruit berry are begin the  
    Em  
old family trees   
these thank you and please   
they spread there own roots   
                                      D  
they watch their own fruit will begin   
    Em                                                        D  
And this old trail will leave me right back to where it began   
D  
So I try to understand  what I  
Em  
can't hold in my hand  and  
G  
whatever I find I'll find may way back to you   
  
D  
And if you can try to find it to  cause this  
Em  
place is overgrowing to wax and gloom   
G  
Home is where ever we are if there's nothing to
