[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G
I don't know if it's been said
    C
But home is where you lay your head
     D                                 G
When you wake up, it's where you wanna be
  G
I have to go at closin' time
     C
To a house that doesn't feel like mine
      D                                   G
But I know one place where I'd be more at ease
 
 
[Chorus]
     C                  G
If I lived here, I'd be home by now
      D
Every hour would be happy
     G      G/A     G/B  G/C
With all my friends around
        C                  G  D/F#  Em
It'd be last call whenever I fall down
     G                  D       G
If I lived here, I'd be home by now

[Verse 2]
G
Quarter don't buy much these days
     C
But 'round here, it still gets three plays
   D                                G
On that old bubbler jukebox in the corner
G
Christmas lights will hide the dust
   C
On antler chandeliers and such
  D                                G
I wonder what it looks like in the morning
     C
Just think of what I'd save on cabs
    G
I'd never have to close my tab
     A                                  D
They couldn't lock the door and make me leave
 
 
[Chorus]
     C                  G
If I lived here, I'd be home by now
      D
Every hour would be happy
     G      G/A     G/B  G/C
With all my friends around
        C                  G  D/F#  Em
It'd be last call whenever I fall down
     G                  D       G
If I lived here, I'd be home by now

      Em
Yeah, I can raise hell
    C
And nobody cares
          A7
You don't have to go home
            D
When you're already there
         G                    C
Yeah, if I lived here, I'd be home by now
         D                    G
From the living room, I could paint this town
         G                       C
With the money I'd save, I could buy us all a round
         D                    G
Yeah, if I lived here, I'd be home by now

I have to go at closin' time
To a house that doesn't feel like mine
But I know one place where I'd be more at ease

If I lived here, I'd be home by now
Every hour would be happy
With all my friends around
It'd be last call whenever I fall down
If I lived here, I'd be home by now

Quarter don't buy much these days
But 'round here, it still gets three plays
On that old bubbler jukebox in the corner
Christmas lights will hide the dust
On antler chandeliers and such

(That's good, whew)
Yeah, if I lived here, I'd be home by now
From my living room, I could paint this town
With the money I'd save, I could buy us all a round
Yeah, if I lived here, I'd be home by now

Come on to my house
You don't ever have to leave
