||CHORDS||
D Em
Side of the road, I stopped and
G A7
Picked up the pieces of your car
D Em
You were just standing, speechless
G A7
Knowing you'd never travel far
G A7 D G/B
That's what you do when someone's given up on you
G A7 D
And that's when I knew that I was giving up and giving in
G A7
That's when I knew where I was
G A7 D
That's when I knew that I was home
D Em G
Stuck in the middle of the road
A7
For better or worse, we compromise
D Em
You may have won my hand, dear
G A7
But it was the consolation prize
G A7 D G/B
That's when I knew that I was running out on you
G A7 D
That's what you do when time is running out and running down
G A7
That's when I knew where I was
G A7 D
That's when I knew that I was home
C#m A
Where does the heart reside
G# C#m A G#
If not where I lay my head?
C#m A
I could run but I'm petrified
G# C#m
And choose this instead
G# F# A
Again and again
||SOLO||
You can play this with a pick or fingerstyle if you choose. Both methods sound excellent.

D Em
End of the road I'm running
G A7
And look back to survey where I'd been
D Em
Someday I'll write and ask you
G A7
If you could imagine what I'd seen
G A7 D G/B
How could you think that I could turn my back on you?
G A7 D
How did you think this would be turning out? And turning 'round
G A7
What could I do but call you?
G A7 D
What could I do to call this home?
G A7
That's when I knew where I was
G A7 D
That's when I knew that I was home
