Verse 1
        Bm7        F#m7
I had a good life
           Bm7   F#m7
Before you came
         Em7
I had my friends and my freedom
D/F#     G  A
I had my name
                Bm7                   F#m7
Still there was sorrow and emptiness
                 Bm7   F#m7
'Til you made me glad
       Em7               D/F#                    G  A
Oh, in this love I found strength I never knew I had

Chorus
    D          A  Em7
And this love
                            D      A  Em7
Is like nothing I have ever known
        D/F#        G 
Take my hand, love
               C
I'm taking you home
           D
Taking you home

Verse 2
         Bm7
There were days, lonely days
   F#m7                           Bm7      F#m7
When  the world wouldn't throw me a crumb
      Em7                D/F#
But I kept on believing
                    G  Asus
That this day would come

Chorus 2


    D          A  Em7
And this love
                            D      A  Em7
Is like nothing I have ever known
        D/F#        G
Take my hand, love
               C
I'm taking you home
               D
I'm taking you   home

Bridge
             C/E                  Fsus   F     Gsus  G
Where we can be with the ones who really care
D                  C/E            Fsus  F
Home, where we can grow together
               Asus
Keep you in my heart forever

Chorus
    D          A  Em7
And this love
                            D      A  Em7
Is like nothing I have ever known
        D/F#  A  G
Take my hand
           C  G
Taking you home
           D
I?m taking you home
    Em7   G
Yes I am
C          D                Em7
Taking you home (Taking you home)

Taking you home (fade)


The tuning on this album version is about 3 cent above 
standard concert tuning.
In order to play this song with the recording, it will
be necessary to sharpen the tuning on all 6 strings slightly.

I have included to fingerings for the G major chord. The second
one, a barre chord, is intended to be used with the Gsus that
precedes it.

This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since
U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have
included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to
experiment with your own chord voicings.
