My Heart (Forever at Home)

I dedicate this song to all of my children
I wrote the lyrics on Thursday 07/08/10. Friday I started working with a set of chords that I have been developing for about 3 months now, but the chords just did not suite the song, so I just started playing around with chords and notes and out of that came up with an alternate tuning and ended up with my own tuning on this one. I think alot of young adults or teenagers probably think like this and this song was put together looking back at my own life and times and seeing how my own 18 year old is dealing with life at this moment.

TUNING: FFCFCC

My Heart (Forever at Home):

Years ago I jumped a train
Didn't care about the pain
Of leaving family and friends back home
I just wanted to be alone

I was heading out of town
Didn't care where I was bound
I only wanted to see the land
To live my life and be a man

It doesn't matter where I go
It doesn't matter where I've been
Cause my heart will always be
Forever at home

Many years have passed me by
My heart now weeps I cannot lie
I long for those I left behind
My heart feels bad so please be kind

As I stand here before you now
In this quaint and quiet town
I'll be honest it's the truth
My heart is lost and I missed you

It doesn't matter where I go
It doesn't matter where I've been
Cause my heart will always be
Forever at home
