Story Behind The Song
The song is about being in a place that's most familar to us. That being home. All though we may go visit other places and like them, home has a feel like no other.
Song Description
The heavy guitars drive the song to the pre-chorus which throws in some nice blues chords and builds up to the exploding chorus. The song features a nice melodic guitar solo along with a cool wah-wah pedal for the bridge.

Lyrics
VERSE:
Home home is where the heart is don't you know
where you kick off your shoes and then you lie on the couch alone
basking in the television glow
home is where the heart is don't you know
VERSE 2:
So you pack it all up and then you go
to a place you know you're welcome when you're feeling kinda low
home is where the heart is don't you know
you pack it all up and then you go
CHORUS:
Take a load off after you've been traveling for days and days and days and days
take a load off after you've been traveling for days and days and days and days
BRIDGE:
Places destinations
you're taking your time to see what's going down and what's shaking
around here
you lay low
crank it up here we go
CHORUS:
Take a load off after you've been traveling for days and days and days and days
take a load off after you've been traveling for days and days and days and days
Take a load of after you've been traveling for days and days and days and days
take a load off after you've been traveling for days and days and days and days
take a load off yeah
take a load off yeah
take a load off yeah
take a load off yeah
take a load off yeah
take a load off yeah
take a load off
you take a load off
