verse 1 
Bb                             Bb7 
Met this girl called Josephine 
                               C 
And took her up on my machine 
                    C#dim7 
We had a little fun 
                             Bb 
And now we got a little one 
           Gm       Bb 
Had to get married 
                    Gm    F 
Being chased out of town 

Found ourselves a place to live 
   Eb 
We put all our money down 

          Cm         Bb    Eb         Bb      Ab 
Called it home sweet home, home sweet home 
                      F            Bb 
Eleven floors up in a tower block, happy just to have a home 
     Bdim7                            Cm  Dm  Eb  Fsus4 F    Cm  Dm  Eb  Eb  F 
I've gone and changed the lock on our home 

verse 2 
Bb                              Bb7 
Nothing really worked out right 
                                        C 
Things got broke, they stayed that way 
                                        C#dim7 
None of our friends came round at night 
                                Bb 
Little Sam got no place to play 
                         Gm                        Bb 
"We've got to get out of here, Bill," she said 
           Gm                       F 
"I've been saying it all the while" 

When I came home from work that night 
      Eb 
She'd jumped out the window with our child 
 
         Cm         Bb    Eb         Bb      Ab 
From our home sweet home, home sweet home  
                       F     Bb                     Bdim7 
Just a place to take a rest, just a place to make a nest 
           Cm  Dm  Eb  Fsus4  F    Cm  Dm  Eb  Eb  F 
We call it home 

verse 3 
Bb                                     Bb7 
When the insurance money came through 
                                         C 
It seemed dirty, didn't know what to do 
                                           C#dim7 
Took out the cash, went down to the casino 
                               Bb 
Down on the wheel on a double 
                 Gm          Bb        Gm      F 
And I won, yes I won, like I never won before 
                                      Eb 
Bought myself a country house with an antique carved oak door 

       Cm         Bb    Eb         Bb      Ab 
It was home sweet home, home sweet home 
                 F      Bb                     Bdim7 
Just a place to lay our head, think of all the things we said 
             Cm  Dm  Eb  Fsus4  F    Cm  Dm  Eb  Eb  F 
About in our home sweet home
