Capo 2

Intro: G G/F# Em D C G 


           G         C                   G    C  G  G/F#
I've heard love songs make a Georgia man cry
       Em          D          C 
On the shoulder of somebody's Saturday night
         G        C            G   C  G  G/F#
Read the good book, studied it too
    Em         D            C
But nothing prepared me for living with you


Chorus 1:
D          Em             C          G
Lock me up tight in these shackles I wear
D           Em          C             G
Tied up the keys in the folds of your hair
        D               Em      C    
And the difference with me is I used to not care
C                   G    C   G  C G
Stockholm let me go home


Once a wise man to the ways of the world
Now I've traded those lessons for faith in you, girl
Crossed the ocean, thousand years from my home
In this frozen old city of silver and stone

Chorus 2:
Ships in the harbor and birds on the bluff
Don't move an inch when their anchor goes up
And the difference with me is I've fallen in love
Stockholm let me go home
Let me go


Bridge:
        Am        C               G                        D 
And the night, so long, I used to pray for the daylight to come
Am         C                G                              D  
Folks back home surely have called off the search and gone back to their own


Chorus 2


Let me go
          G G/F# Em D C G
Let me go home
