I'd like to introduce another great friend of mine from here in New York.
How about a nice welcome for Paul Simon.

[G] [D] [A]
I'm sitting in the railway [E] station, looking for my [G] destination.
[A]
[F#m]
[Bm] On a tour of one night [A] stands, [G] my suitcase and guitar in [A] hand.
And every stop is neatly planned, [E] for a poet and a one man [A] band.
[Bm]
[C#m] [D] Homeward bound, I [A] wish I was, [Bm]
[A] [D] homeward bound.
[A] Home where my [G] thoughts are [D]
skipping, [A] home where my [G] [F#m] music's [A] playing,
home [E] where my [G] love lies [F#] [E] waiting silently [A] for me.
Every day's an endless stream [C#m] of cigarettes and [Em] [A] magazines.
[F#m]
Each [Bm] town looks the same to [A] me, [G] the movies and the factories.
[A] And every stranger's face I see, [E] reminds me that I long to be [A] homeward bound.
[Bm]
[C#] Homeward [D] bound, I [A] wish I was,
[D] homeward bound.
[A] Home where my thoughts [G] are [F#m] skipping, [A] home where [Em] my music's [F#m] playing,
[A] home where my love [G]
[F#m] lies [E] waiting silently [A] for me.

[F#m] music's playing,
[A] home where [G] my love [A] lies waiting [E] silently [A] for me.
[D] [A]
Tonight I'll sing my songs again, [G#]
[E] I'll play [C#m] the game [A] and pretend.
[Em]
[F#] [F#m]
[Bm] That all of my words come back to [A] me [G] in shades of mediocrity,
[A] like emptiness in harmony, [E] I need someone to comfort
[A] me.
[D] Homeward bound, I wish [A] I was, [D] homeward bound.
[A] Home where [Bm] my thoughts are skipping, [A] home where [Em] my [Bm] music's [A] playing,
home [Em] where my [Bm] love lies waiting [E] silently [A] for me.
