Who Says You Cant Go Home
Bon Jovi

Welcome to this Who Says You Cant Go Home page where you'll find lyrics, video and demo tutorial page. There is a free tab for this song in the bottom right hand menu.

This song was written by Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora and released on their 2005 album Have A Nice Day. The song climbed to #23 on the rock charts but when Bon Jovi teamed up with Jennifer Nettles for a duet, it went to #1 on the country charts.

Keith Urban was to be the duet partner for this song but then Bon Jovi realized they had similar vocals, so instead he opted for a female partner .... good move!

Because Jon Bon Jovi is a real Jersey Boy and is dedicated to helping his community, Habitat For Humanity volunteers were featured in the music video.



I play this one in standard pitch tuning on G. The chords you'l need are G, C, Am, Dsus, D, Em and a Bm. In the beginning I use a little melody pattern which I blend into the rhythm that played by a fiddle on the original recording.

I didnt put any lead in this song but there is a bit of a riff pattern during the break . Im playing mainly rhythm here with a few quick shuffle patterns as you'll notice. These are fully explained in the full instructional tutorial at the link below.

How To Play Rhythm for Who Says You Cant Go Home

When you strum this song you can use a steady up and dn pattern or go with a note-up-dn-up ... note-up-dn-up. In a few spots you'll notice a quick shuffle but thats just a feel I have in certain places to throw those into the mix. Its not required.

And near the end of each verse you can switch to all downstrokes to build the song up a bit before you launch into the chorus.
