Take Me Home Lyrics

Email: markpeterz@hotmail.co.uk
I'm a huge phil collins and genesis fan, and have been since i was 3-4 years old. Now im
and find 'Take Me Home' is still one of my favourite phil collins songs..
i've looked on here for some chords, and not to name and shame, but nobody has written
half decent ones... so to actually give some credit and justice to the song, i thought
write down some proper ones!
you change fingering quick.
D - on the first 'Take' pause
D5 - the second 'Take'
Cadd9 - 'Me' *you can miss this one out and just have 3 chord chorus*
G - 'Home'
As for strumming, im still trying to figure that one out.. it seems easy to strum each
once.. if you strummed in tempo with the songs background, you'd ruin the sound of the
so it's quite tricky!
Verse 1:
Take that look of worry
Im an ordinary man
They dont tell me nothing
So I find out what I can
Theres a fire thats been burning
Right outside my door
I cant see but I feel it
And it helps to keep me warm
So i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Verse 2:
Seems so long Ive been waiting
Still dont know what for
Theres no point escaping
I dont worry anymore
I cant come out to find you
I dont like to go outside
They cant turn off my feelings
Like theyre turning off a light
But i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Chorus:
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Cos Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
Verse 3:
Take that look of worry, mines an ordinary life
Working when its daylight
And sleeping when its night
Ive got no far horizons
I dont wish upon a star
They dont think that I listen
Oh but I know who they are
And i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Chorus:
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Cos Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
But I dont remember
Take, take me home... REPEAT AS MUCH AS YOU WISH.
THE END.
