[A] [B] [D] [A]
I'm sitting in the railway [C#m] station, about to get to my [Em] destination.
[F#] [Bm] On a tour of one night [G] stands my suitcase and guitar in hand,
[A] and every stop is neatly planned [E] for a poet and a one man [A]
band.
[D] Homeward bound, I wish I [A] was homeward [D] bound.
[A]
Home where my thoughts [D] escape [A] and home where my [D] music's [A] playing,
home where my love [F#m] lies [E] waiting silently for [A] me.
Every day's an endless stream [C#m] of cigarettes and magazines,
[A]
[F#m] [Bm] and each town looks the same to me, the [G] movies and the factories,
[A] and every strangest face I see [E] reminds me that I long to be [A] homeward bound.
[D] Homeward bound, I [A] wish I was [D] homeward bound.
[A]
Home where my thoughts [D] escape [A] and home where my [D] music's playing,
[A] home where my love [F#m] lies [E] waiting silently [A] for me.
Tonight I'll sing my songs [C#m] again, I'll play the game and [A] pretend.
[F#m] [Bm] But all my words come back to me [G] in shades of mediocrity,
[A] like emptiness in harmony.
[E] I need someone to comfort [A] me.
And I'm [D] homeward bound, [B] I wish [A] I was [D] homeward bound.
[A]
Home where my [D] thoughts [A] escape and home [B] where my music's playing,
home where my [G] love lies [E] waiting silently [A] for me.
[C#m] [C#] Silently for me.
