I've lived a thousand places

Just when I thought I had no place to be
Chorus
[Am] [D]
Home is like an island and I'm at sea
[G] [Cadd9]
Try to pull it out but it's pullin' me
[Am] [D]
I could sail as far as the eye can see
[G] [Cadd9]
Look behind and that island looks back at me
[Am] [G] [D] [G]
No matter how far I go, I can't leave my home

I spend my whole life chasin'
[Cadd9]
But nothing's new and I'm tracin'
[Em] [Cadd9]
Tracin' the lines right through the page
[G]
Yet I continue fighting
[Am7]
My pride is not surviving
[G/B] [Cadd9]
Just when I thought that no one could save me
Chorus
[Am] [D]
Home is like an island and I'm at sea
[G] [Cadd9]
