Homeward Bound


I'm (G)sitting in a railway station, got a (Bmin)ticket for my (F)destina(E)tion(E7).
(Amin)On a tour of one night stands, my (F)suitcase and guitar in hand,
And (G)every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a (D)one man band.

(G)Homeward (C)bound,
I wish I (G)was.
Homeward (C)bound,
(G)Home, where my (C)thoughts escaping,
(G)Home, where my (C)music's playing,
(G)Home, where my (Amin)love lies waiting (D)silently (G)for me.

Everyday's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines.
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories,
And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be...

(G)
Homeward (C)bound,
I wish I (G)was.
Homeward (C)bound,
(G)Home, where my (C)thoughts escaping,
(G)Home, where my (C)music's playing,
(G)Home, where my (Amin)love lies waiting (D)silently (G)for me.

Tonight I'll sing my songs again, I'll play the game and pretend,
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity,
Like emptiness in harmony, I need someone to comfort me.

(G)Homeward (C)bound,
I wish I (G)was.
Homeward (C)bound,
(G)Home, where my (C)thoughts escaping,
(G)Home, where my (C)music's playing,
(G)Home, where my (Amin)love lies waiting (D)silently (G)for me.
