G5                                           Cmaj9                 G  …             
I used to travel ‘round the world lookin’ for what
I thought it was anywhere that I was not
The hole there within me was bigger than the sky
It seemed I was lost and I did not know why
              Am7                D         Am7              D…
When along came a virus  it forced me to stay
That’s when I found it  it was not far away
           Cmaj7                       D                                                 G5   Cmaj9
It was when I was fin’ly alone     That I found myself a home

Never seemed to be satisfied with who I was
Thought I needed to change sometimes just because
I could not see the beauty there in my eyes
Always looking out there in my fine-tuned disguise
When along came a virus  it forced me to stay
That’s when I found it  it was not far away
It was when I was fin’ly alone That I found myself a home

       Em
 For all the times I turned my back on me
        D…
 For all the times I ran away
 For never taking time to feed myself
 The Love that I craved
 For spinning tales all the wanderings
 For ignoring the call
        Cmaj7                                     D
 For acting like I did not care at all

           G5     Cmaj9   /D         G5      Cmaj9   /D         
 I’m sorry                        I’m sorry

These are different days they got a brand new frequency
The more I look in the more Love I can see
I have to thank this Universe for the gift I’ve received
The whole world has been sent to their room
Just to think about  to figure out  to turn around  to find who they are
‘Cause along came the virus  its forced us to stay
And that’s where we’ll find it  it is not that far away
And when we are finally alone
We will find ourselves a home
