The Home by Portugal. The Man.
Lyrics by John Baldwin Gourley.
Key: F

Intro:
            Gm 4x         Bb  4x           C 4x      Bb 2x - C 2x
Do you ever listen to the sounds that your hands make?
         Gm       Bb       C        Bb - C
Did you know that we could make sounds?

Verse:
Gm                             Bb           C
  I don't know what the palace knows, but I don't run with sheep,
    Bb             C
The shepherd can't heard me
   Gm                      Bb                      C
My feet ever slow with the age that takes me, I'll slip out to the mountains
Bb           C
Where nobody knows me

Chorus:

(I'm not sure if there are any chord changes here, if there are, the chords are probably the same as the rest of the song.)


Gm (Let it ring)
I will make my home here 

I will make my home here

I will make my home here
                      
Verse:
Gm              Bb                C
Grow a field of plenty to hold me tight and keep us warm
Bb                 C
from the cold that burns me
Gm                         Bb                      C
My feet ever slow with the age that takes me, I'll slip out to the mountains
Bb           C
Where nobody knows me, and

Chorus:
Gm (let it ring)
I will make my home here 

I will make my home here

I will make my home here
                      
Verse:
            Gm            Bb               C         Bb - C
Do you ever listen to the sounds that your hands make?
         Gm       Bb       C        Bb - C
Did you know that we could make sounds?
Gm                      Bb                  C
  I don't know what the palace knows, but I don't run with sheep,
    Bb             C
The shepherd can't heard me
   Gm                      Bb                      C
My feet ever slow with the age that takes me, I'll slip out to the mountains
Bb           C
Where nobody knows me

Chorus:
Gm
I will make my home here
Bb
I will make my home here
C
I will make my home here
Bb             C
(I will make my home here)

Repeat ONCE.

Bridge: (fingerpick this part somehow, it sounds good just plucking the notes of 
the powerchord for each chord, then gradually building up.)

Gm                Bb           F            C
I know that I was fine before (fine before, fine before)
Gm                Bb           F            C
I know that I was fine before (fine before, fine before)
Gm                Bb           F            C
I know that I was fine before (fine before, fine before)
Gm                Bb           F            C
