This is a great accoustic song by Jack White from the White Stripes off the excellent Elephant album. The intro sounds excellent once you've got the hang of it and in reality only uses the D, G, C and A cord shapes with simple picking and a hammer on at the end of the A run.

D: xx0232
G: 320003
C: x32010
G/B: x200xx
A: x02220
Asus4: x02230
Am: x02210

CHORUS:

You've got her in your pocket

And there's no way out now

Put it in the safe and lock it

'Cause it's home sweet home

VERSE 1:

Nobody ever told you that it was the wrong way

To trick a woman, make her feel she did it her way

And you'll be there if she ever feels blue

And you'll be there when she finds someone new

What to do?

Well, you know

CHORUS:
You keep her in your pocket
Where there's no way out now
Put it in the safe and lock it
'Cause it's home sweet home

VERSE 2:
The smile on your face made her think she had the right one
Then she thought she was sure by the way you two could have fun
But now she might leave like she's threatened before
Grab hold of her fast before her feet leave the floor
And she's out the door
'Cause you want

CHORUS:

VERSE 3:
And in your own mind you know you're lucky just to know her And in the beginning all you wanted was to show her
But now you're scared, you think she's running away
You search in your hand for something clever to say:
"Don't go away"
'Cause I want

CHORUS:
To keep you in my pocket
Where there's no way out
Put it in the safe and lock it
'Cause it's home sweet home

Home sweet home

Thats it! There's some bass notes in there that I'm still trying to figure out (help!) but the rest sounds pretty good. This is quite a good one to play to a chick if you can sing, even if you cant it'll still get her in the mood.... it's worked for me anyway!
