THE ROAD HOME
Words and music by Debbie Ridpath Ohi (c) Oct/1998
Counterpoint by Allison Durno

Cadd9                         F
Your smile's familiar, and I feel as though we've met before
E                    Am
Would you have this dance with me? but
Dm      C     E
wait until I feel the floor
Am                          E
beneath my feet again, I am flying free.

Cadd9                        F
I used to have a dream, I'd find a friend to
Cadd9                              F
share my Snoopy lunchbox with, we could pretend to
Am                        E
sail a ship to Africa beneath a silver moon
Am                              E
sip a glass of ginger tea, I'll fiddle you a tune.


   CHORUS:
   C             Am                   F          G
   Somehow these dreams of mine came true
   C        AM               F      
   Whatever road I choose to wander always
   G                Cadd9 
   takes me home to you.
   

Cadd9                     F
I see you watching me across the room, nobody knows
E                     Am
we are dancing in disguise, we
Dm         C      E
share the secret rose, and I
Am                 E
see a kindred soul in your eyes.

Cadd9                        F
I used to have a dream, I'd meet someone who'd
Cadd9                          F
find the missing pieces in my life redone, we'd
Am                                    E
look for lands where magic's real and urban legends dwell
Am                                 E
watch the eagles fly, and see the forest weave its spell.


   BRIDGE:
   
   Cadd9                F
   I don't know all the answers, but we'll
   E                Am            Gadd6  F  G
   work them out together, one by one
   
   
   
   
   
   CHORUS:
   
   C             Am                   F          G
   Somehow these dreams of mine came true
   C        AM               F      
   Whatever road I choose to wander always
   G                Cadd9 
   takes me home to you.


Cadd9                         F
Your smile's familiar, and I feel as though we've met before
E                    Am
Would you have this dance with me? but
Dm      C     E
wait until we feel the floor
Am                          E
beneath our feet again, we are flying free.


   CHORUS:
   C             Am                   F          G
   Somehow these dreams of mine came true
   C        AM               F      
   Whatever road I choose to wander always
   G                Am  Gadd6 F
   takes me home to you
   G                C(add9)
   takes me home to you.


Gadd6
