[C]
[D] [G]
[F] [C]
[G]
I saw [C] you at the police [Em] station and it breaks my heart to say
[G]
Your eyes [C] had wandered off in [Em] some faint distant golden gray
[Am]
I guess you didn't see it coming, someone's gotten used to [G] stumming
Dreaming of the golden years, I see you had to change [Am] careers far away
But we both know it's [G] so wet
I saw [C] you on the back page [Em] of some free press yesterday
[G]
The driftwood [C] in your eyes said [Em] nothing short of love for pain
[Am]
I knew you from another picture, a summer with the most [G] conviction
We used to read the funny paper, fool around and pull some [Am] paper
But not today
Send a message [D] to her, a message that I'm coming
I'm coming to [F] pursue her, damn [C] homecoming
I put my best [A] on your bed
[F] I've got your chin wound [C] over
I'll chase you down [A] dear, your dear
[G]
Saw [C] you on a TV [Em] station and it made me wanna pray
[G]
An empty [C] shell of love in [Em] there, but now dusted with decay
[Am]
What happened to the funny paper?
Smiling while you're mourning [G] later
Someone ought to sit you wafer
Find a way to [Am] educate her all the way
Time to come and [D] find you, but you can't hide from me girl
So never mind what's [F] happening, damn [C] homecoming
I put my best [A] on your bed
I've [F] got your [C] chin wound over
[A] I'll chase you down dear, your dear
[D]
Saw [Am]
[Em]
[E] [Am]
[C]
[A] [D]
[G] you [C] in the church out [Em] there, was no time to exchange
[G] You were [C] getting married [Em] and it felt so very strange
[Am] I guess I didn't see it coming, now I guess it's me [G] who's vomiting
Dreaming of the golden years, you and I were mixing [A] tears Not [Am] today
Not for me but [D] someone I never could get used to
So now I wear a red [F] suit, damn homecoming
[C] I put my best [A] on your bed
I wear [F] a red suit, damn [C] homecoming
I left it all for [A] your bed
I've got [F] my best, good for you
