Home at Last

Intro: *lonely guitar solo*

Verse 1:

Weathered steps and creaky doors

This old house has seen it all before

Faded wallpaper, chipped paint too

But it's a roof, and that'll do

Pre-Chorus:

Fussy landlord's got his rules

"Don't park on the lawn," he always schools

But I'll play nice, I'll toe the line

'Cause finally, this place is mine

Chorus:

It's better than sleeping couch to couch

No more favors, no more doubt

Yeah, it's better than drifting day to day

Finally found a place to stay

Good to be home, good to be home

Verse 2:

Radiator hisses through the night

Floorboards groan in the pale moonlight

Windows rattle when the wind blows hard

But it beats sleeping in my car

Pre-Chorus:

Neighbor's music bleeds through the wall

But I've got space to stand up tall

It ain't the Ritz, but that's okay

'Cause I've got somewhere I can lay

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:

Cardboard boxes line the hall

Memories and dreams stacked wall to wall

This old place, it's got some years

But now it's where my story steers

Solo:

(Instrumental break - imagine a soaring guitar solo here)

Verse 3:

Sure, the pipes knock and the faucets drip

And yeah, sometimes the power takes a trip

But when I turn my key in that lock

I feel my worries start to drop

Pre-Chorus:

'Cause it's all mine, for better or worse

My own little corner of the universe

No more drifting, no more roam

I've finally found my way back home

Chorus:

It's better than sleeping couch to couch

No more favors, no more doubt

Yeah, it's better than drifting day to day

Finally found a place to stay

Good to be home, good to be home

Outro:

This old house, it might be worn

But it's where new dreams are born

Good to be home, good to be home

At last, I'm home
