Verse 1

7 7 7 -7 -7 -6 -6
If you search for ten-der-ness
-4 -7 7 -7 -6 -6 6
It is’nt hard to find~~~
-6 -6 -6 6 6 6 -6 5 -4 4 -4
You can have~~~~ the love you need~~~ to live
4 7 7 7 -7 -6 -6 -6
But if you look for truth-ful-ness
6 -6 -7 7 -7 -6 -6 6
You might just as well be blind~~~~
4 -6 -6 -7 7 -7 -8 8 -9 8
It al-ways seems to be so hard to give

Chorus
8 -8 -9 -6 10 9 8 -8 -8 7
Hon — est y is such a lone — ly word~~~~
-10 -9 -8 7 -7 -6 -6 6
Ev — ery one is so un — true~~~~
8 -8 -9 -6 10 9 8 -8 -8 7
Hon — est — y is hard-ly ev — er heard~~~~
-6 -10 -9 -8 7 -7 -8 -8 7
And most — ly what I need from you~~~~

Verse 2 (Same tune as verse 1)

I can always find someone
To say they sympathize.
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don’t want some pretty face
To tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone to believe

Chorus

Verse 3 (Same tune as 1 & 2)

When I’m deep inside of me
Don’t be too concerned
I won’t as for nothin’ while I’m gone
But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
Because you’re the one I depend upon

Chorus

There is a bridge after 2nd verse and 2nd chorus
I am still working on, will add later.

Veldig så heldig vi var, du og jeg
Vi grov poteter og vi gjette ku
Vi passa unger og vi laga mat
Og lønna den passa oss akkurat

Å hompetitten … osv …

Farmor go skredder’n og mormor og mor
Sto go tok avskjed da mjølkeruta for
Ja, selv Trampoline med lyseblått blikk
Sto og slo takten da ruta gikk

Å hompetitten … osv…

6 6 7 -8 8
Oh, give me a home

7 -7 -6 -9 -9 -9
where the buf-fa-lo roam,

8 -9 9 7 7 7 -7 7 -8
Where the deer and the an-te-lope play

6 6 7 -8 8 7 -7 -6 -9 -9 -9
Where sel-dom is heard a dis-cour-a-ging word,

-9 -9 8 -8 7 -7 7 -8 7
And the skies are not cloud-y all day.

9 -9 8 -8 8
Home, home on the range,

6 6 7 7 7 7 -7 7 -8
Where the deer and the an-te-lope play.

6 6 7 -8 8 7 -7 -6 -9 -9 -9
Where sel-dom is heard a dis-cour-a-ging word,

-9 -9 8 -8 7 -7 7 -8 7
And the skies are not cloud-y all day.

Where the air is so pure,
the zephyrs so free,
And the breezes
so balmy and light.
Then I would not exchange
my home on the range
For all of your
cities so bright.

The red man was pressed
from this part of the West,
And he’s likely
no more to return
To the banks of Red River,
where seldom, if ever
Their flickering campfires burn.

How often at night
when the heavens
are bright,
With the light
from the glitering stars,
dHere I stood there amazed,
and asked as I gazed,
If their glory exceeds
that of ours.

I love the wild flowers
in this dear land of ours,
And the curlew
I love to hear scream.
I love the wild rocks
and the antelope flocks,
That graze on
the mountaintops green.

Oh give me a land
where the bright
diamond sand,
Flows leisurely
down the stream.
Where the graceful
white swan
goes sliding along,
Like a maid
in a heavenly dream.

This is Home On The Range
except — well — good.

Oh, give me a home

7 -7 -6 -9 -9 -9
where the buf-fa-lo roam,

8 -9 9 7 7 7 -7 7 -8
And the deer and the ant-e-lope play.

6 6 7 -8 8
Where sel-dom is heard

7 -7 -6 -9 -9 -9
a dis-cour-a-ging word,

-9 -9 8 -8 7 -7 7 -8 7
And the skies are not cloud-y all day.

9 -9 8 -8 8
Home, home on the range,

6 6 7 7 7 7 -7 7 -8
where the deer and the ant-e-lope play,

6 6 7 -8 8
Where sel-dom is heard

7 -7 -6 -9 -9 -9
a dis-cour-ag-ing word,

-9 -9 8 -8 7 -7 7 -8 7
And the skies are not cloud-y all day.

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all day

Home, home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

VERSE 1:

Just around the corner there’s heartache—

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 6 5

Down the street that losers use—

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 6

If you can wade in through the teardrops,

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 6 5

You’ll find me at the Home of the Blues—

4 5 5 5 5 -5 -5 -4 4

VERSE 2:

I walk and cry while my heartbeats

6 6 6 -6 -6 -6 6 5

Keeps time with the drag of my shoes—

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 6 5

The sun never shines through this window of mine—

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 -6 6 -5 5 -4

It’s dark at the Home of the Blues—

4 5 5 5 -5 -5 -4 4

VERSE 3

Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest mem’ries—

5 5 5 5 5 5 5 -5 -5 5 4

Mem’ries so sweet that I cry—

-6 -6 -6 -6 6 -5 5

Dreams that I’ve had left me feelin’ so bad,

4 4 4 -4 -4 -4 5 5 -4 4

I just want to give up and lay down and die—

4 4 4 4 -4 -4 -5 -5 5 -4 4

VERSE4:

So if you’ve just lost your sweetheart,

6 6 6 -6 -6 -6 6 5

And it seems there’s no good way to choose-

6 6 6 -6 -6 -6 6 6 5

Come along with me, mis’ry loves company—

5 5 5 5 -5 -5 -5 6 -5 5 4

You’re welcome at the Home of the Blues—

4 5 5 5 5 -5 -5 -4 4

REPEAT

Just around the corner there’s heartache—

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 6 5

Down the street that losers use—

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 6 5

You’ll find me at the Home of the Blues—

6 7 7 7 -7 -6 -6 6 5 4

Way out in the land of the setting sun,

4 -4 5 4 -4 -4 4

Where the wind blows wild and free,

-4 5 -5 -6 -6 -4 5 -5 -6 -6

There’s a lovely spot, just the only one,

6 -6 -7 6 -6 -4 6

That means home sweet home to me.

6 6 7 7 7 -7 -6 -6 5 4

If you follow the old Kit Carson trail,

4 -4 5 4 -4 -4 4

Until desert meets the hills,

-4 5 -5 -6 -6 -4 5 -5 -6 -6

Oh you certainly will agree with me,

It’s the place of a thousand thrills.

CHORUS:

Home means Nevada,

-5 -5 5 -5

Home means the hills,

6 6 6 -6 6 -5 5

Home means the sage and the pine.

7 7 7 -7 -6 -5 -5 5 -5

Out by the Truckee’s silvery rills,

-7 -7 -7 -6 -4 (45) 5

Out where the sun always shines,

5 5 (45) 5 5 -5 -5 5 -5

There is the land that I love the best,

6 6 6 -7 -7 -7 -6

Fairer than all I can see.

7 -7 7 -8 7 -6 6 7 6

Right in the heart of the golden west,

5 6 -5 5 5 -4 4

Home means Nevada to me.

Verse 2:

Whenever the sun at the close of day,

Colors all the western sky,

Oh my heart returns the the desert gray,

And the mountains tow’ring high.

Where the moonbeams play in the shadowed glen

With the spotted fawn and doe.

All the live long night until morning light,

It’s the loveliest place I know.

CHORUS

We arrived in December and London was cold,

-5 5 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -3 4 -4
We stayed in the bars along Charing Cross Road.

4 4 -3 4 -4 4 -4 5 -5 6 -5
We never saw nothing but brass taps and oak,

6 -5 5 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -3 4 -4

4 4 -3 4 -4 -4 5 -5 6 -5
Past old crooked dykes, through Yorkshire’s green fields,

6 -5 5 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -3 4 -4
We were flung into dance as the train jigged and reeled.

By the light of the moon, she’d drift through the streets,

5 5 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -3 4 -4 4
A rare old perfume, so seductive and sweet.

4 4 -3 4 -4 4 -4 5 -5 6 -5
She’d tease us and flirt as the pubs all closed down,

5 5 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -3 4 -4
