Homeward Bound

1. I'm sitting in the railway station

Emi Gmi6 A7

got a ticket for my destination hm

Dmi

on a tour of one-night stands

my suitcase and guitar in hand

and ev'ry stop is neatly planned

for a poet and a one-man band.

R: Homeward Bound I wish I was Homeward Bound

home where my thought's escaping

home where my music's playing

home where my love lies waiting silently for me.

2. Ev'ry day's an endless stream

of cigarettes and magazines hm

and each town looks the same to me

the movies and the factories

and ev'ry stranger's face I see

reminds me that I long to be.

R:

3. Tonight I'll sing my songs again

I'll play the game and pretend hm

but all my words come back to me

in shades of mediocrity

like emptiness in harmony

I need someone to comfort me.

R: + silently for me ...
