Verse 1

G                           D7
Woke up this morning with a smile
                             G
And watched her sleeping for awhile
And I thank the Lord above me
C
For sending her to love me
A7
Deep in this heart of mine
                    D7
I have to thank Him one more time

Verse 2

      G                       D7
Cause in the bedroom down the hall
                        B7
I hear our newborn baby call
E7                    Am
And then I rediscover how much I really love her
           D7              G
And I'm so thankful for it all

Verse 3

     B7    C
Home sweet home
          G            E7             A7
Makes you wonder why a man would ever roam
D7                      G    B7    C   A7
When he's got himself a home sweet home
G    D7    G
Home sweet home

Verse 4

                          D7
I hate to leave her every day
                          G
She seems a million miles away
And my heart would keep on hurtin'
C
But there's one thing for certain
A7
Our love will keep on growing
                 D7
And I'll make it home just knowing

Verse 5

G                            D7
I'll find her waiting at the door
                              B7
And she'll be in my arms once more
E7                         Am
Once again I'll rediscover how much I really love her
             D7         G
Just like so many times before

Verse 6

              B7    C
Then I'm home sweet home
          G            E7             A7
Makes you wonder why a man would ever roam
D7                      G    B7    C    A7
When he's got himself a home sweet home sweet
G    D7    C   G
Home sweet home
