[B] I was out [E] the [G#m] front like nothing [F#] was lost
[B] Wanted [E] my freedom [G#m] no matter what [F#] the cost
[B] It made [E] no difference [G#m] what anyone [F#]
said
I [B] didn't follow [E] my [G#m] heart, I followed [F#] my head
[B] Well a man [E] is an island, [G#m] but the water [F#] is deep
[B] And the shore [E] on the other [G#m] side is ragged [F#] and steep
[B] Well I built [E] my castle [G#m]
for just [F#] one man
Without [B] a [E] love of a woman, [G#m]
it's made [F#] out of sand
[E] The tower of strength [F#]
with no one around
[G#m] To pick me up when [C#m] it all came [E] down
Well I should have [F#] known we all need a place [B] to call [E] home

[B] Well there ain't [E] much left [G#m] you haven't [F#] seen or heard
[B] To look [E] for perfection is [G#m] a lonely [F#] old ride
It [B] takes a whole [E] lot of courage [G#m] and a whole lot [F#] of pride
[E] And then one day [F#] when you really care
[G#m] She touches your soul [C#m] but you're far too scared
[E] Well I should have known [F#] we all need a place [B] to call [E] home
