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)
