D           E             A 
He knew how to reach me deep inside 
       D               E              A 
And he found a part of me I could not hide 
         D                 E            F#m 
And we'd walk and talk and touch tenderly 
          D               E            A 
Then he'd lay me down and make love to me 
   D               E                  A 
We built a love so strong it couldn't break 
          D             E              A 
There was not a road we were afraid to take 
              D                E           F#m 
And we'd kiss all the way from Arkansas to Rome 
              D                    E          A 
Cause in each other's arms we were home sweet home 
             D                       A 
But he don't feel the same since our lives became 
         F#m    D           E 
Years of bills, babies, and chains. 
A  E                 F#m 
Home ain't where his heart is anymore 
A      E            F#m 
He may hang his hat behind our bedroom door 
    A                E            F#m 
But he don't lay his head down to love me like before 
A                    E           A 
Home ain't where his heart is anymore. 

        D              E                 A 
If foundations made of stone can turn to dust 
         D                 E                 A 
Then the hardest hearts of steel can turn to rust 
            D              E              F#m 
If he could only find that feeling once again 
            D               E             A 
If we could only change the way the story ends 
           D                      A 
And he may still come home, but I live here alone 
              F#m         D        E 
The love that built these walls is gone.
