Temporary Home

C    F


[Verse]

C
Little boy, 6 years old
                     F
A little too used to bein' alone
C
Another new mom and dad, another 
school
                      F
Another house that'll never be home

Am
When people ask him
G                   F
how he likes this place
         Am               G       
He looks up and says with a smile 
               F
upon his face


[Chorus]

                       C
This is my temporary home
                   G
It's not where I belong
             Am        G          
Windows and rooms that I'm passin'
    F
 through
                C                  
This is just a stop, on the way to 
           G
where I'm going
          Am     G        F
I'm not afraid because I know
         G
this is my
         C       F
temporary home.

[Verse]

C
Young mom on her own
                              F
She needs a little help got nowhere 
to go.
        C
She's lookin' for a job, lookin' for
 a way out
                              F
Because a half-way house will never 
be a home

   Am
At night she whispers
G             F
to her baby girl:
    Am
Someday we'll find a
G                         F
place here in this world


[Chorus]

                       C
This is our temporary home
                    G
It's not where we belong
             Am          G        
Windows and rooms that we're 
      F
passin' through
                C                  
This is just a stop, on the way to 
              G
where we're going
          Am     G        F
I'm not afraid because I know
         G
this is our
         C     G  Am  G  F
temporary home.


[Verse]

C
Old man, hospital bed
                         F
The room is filled with people he 
loves
                      Am
And he whispers don't cry for me
     G              F
I'll see you all someday
         Am           G       
He looks up and says "I can see 
        F
God's face."


[Chorus]

                      C
This is my temporary home
                   G
It's not where I belong
             Am                    
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' 
   F
through
                C                  
This was just a stop, on the way to
           G
 where I'm going
          Am     G         F
I'm not afraid because I know
         G
this was my
         C      F
temporary home
                    C       F
This is our temporary home.
