HOMESICK (Soul Asylum)
Words & music: Dave Pirner

Fmaj7 = (EADGBe) 102210 or xx3210; other chords are pretty basic.  -Ben

C         G
I want to live with you
       D
In the fifth dimension
     Am
In a dream I've never had
       Fmaj7        G
'Cause I just can't live like this
     Am
In a world like this
       F
I just want to kiss goodbye

        C                       G
CHORUS:  But we are not of this world
           C                    G
        And there's a place for us
        F                 G
        Stuck inside this fleeting moment
        F                 Am
        Tucked away where no one owns it
        F               C               Am               D
        Wrapped up in a haste and by mistake got thrown away
            C           G
        And oh, I am so homesick
               Am
        But it ain't that bad
                   C                D               G
        'Cause I'm homesick for the home I've never had

And though I sometimes get annoyed
I know just where I'm at
This is my song of joy
And now I know there are no secret tricks
No correct politics
Just liars and lunatics

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL: C G D Am

Fmaj7                       G
 Though I would not take it personally
              Am
It's just the child in me
    C            D               Em
Who never really knew how much I had
C                   G
 Woe is me, I am so homesick
       Am
But it ain't that bad,
           C                D               G
'Cause I'm homesick for the home I've never had
