[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D
Let's stay in bed, no better yet
D
Take my bike and go outside
                             G
'Cause if I don't and stay inside
                         D
Then I know I'll lose my mind
 
 
[Verse 2]
N.C.          D
Thought I was dead, buried and left
D
All I did was take a breather
                                                   G
Tied to the bed so I could stay out of trouble for a day
               D
Yeah right, no way
 
 
[Chorus]
        G
This is home, this is roots
        C                 D
This is where you're understood
          G                  Bm
Take your bike and leave the car
      C                  D
Going straight to Eric's Bar
 
 
[Verse 3]
D
'You're on your own' was on the phone
D
It's too hot to stay inside, he said
D
So get your shorts and find a smile
                     G                   D
Let's go grab a beer a while, just for a while
 
 
[Verse 4]
D
We ramble on, humming a song, we don't mean to hurt no one
D
We blow our nose in the dresscodes
                       G                     D
They don't even see us run with our worn-out sneakers on
 
 
[Bridge]
       G            Bm         C                D
Take a dive, skinny dip, it's okay to lose your grip
         G                Bm           C             D
Feel the breeze, cool the brew, giving Kimberley the lip
 
 
[Verse 4]
D
You never have to lie, never have to fake
D
Never lose your fun, never have to hide away
D
These people know you well, they will not kiss and tell
                                         G
Never have to run, never have to run and hide
 
 
[Chorus]
        G
This is home, this is roots
        C                 D
This is where you're understood
          G
Take your bike and leave the car
      C                  D
Going straight to Eric's Bar
        A
This is home, this is roots
        D                 E
This is where you're understood
          A
Take your bike and leave the car
      D                  E
Going straight to Eric's Bar
 
 
[Outro]
