[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

This is where you're understood

Take your bike and leave the car
