I'm sitting in the railway station.
Em/B Gm6/Bb A7
Got a ticket to my destination. Mmm
Dm Bb
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.
C G7 C
And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band.
F
Homeward bound,
C
I wish I was,
F
Homeward bound,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my thought's escaping,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my mu-sic's playing,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my love lies waiting
G C
Silently for me.
Ev'ry day's an endless stream
Em/B Gm6/Bb A7
Of cigarettes and magazi-ines. Mmm
Dm Bb
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
C G7 C
And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
F
Homeward bound,
C
I wish I was,
F
Homeward bound,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my thought's escaping,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my mu-sic's playing,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my love lies waiting
G C
Silently for me.
Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
Em/B Gm6/Bb A7
I'll play the game and prete-end. Mmm
Dm Bb
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
C G7 C
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me.
F
Homeward bound,
C
I wish I was,
F
Homeward bound,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my thought's escaping,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my mu-sic's playing,
C Dm C Bb F
Home where my love lies waiting
G C Cmaj7/B
Silently for me.
C7/Bb C F C
Silently for me.
