[Bm] Swing sets are [A]
empty, [D] like dirt, turn the dark for the night.
[Bm] The [G] center of this [A] town used to [D] whirl in the [A] glow of [Bm] twilight.
[G] look like [A] God's away, with all [D] the trouble [G] these days.
We'll come home before the girls are grown, we're coming [A] home [D] tonight.

_ _ _ _ [Bm] Swing sets are [A]
empty, [D] like dirt, turn the dark for the night.
[Bm] _ _ _ _ The [G] center of this [A] town used to [D] whirl in the [A] glow of [Bm] twilight.
_ _ It might [G] look like _ [A] God's away, _ with all [D] the trouble _ _ [G] these _ _ days. _
We'll come home before the girls are grown, _ _ _ _ we're coming [A] home [D] tonight. _ _ _
_ What all have we [A] done to run [D] this country [A] into such a [Bm] sight? _ _
_ _ _ [G] Stolen from our [A] brothers like we [D] couldn't find a fair enough [Bm]
fight.
_ We [G] don't promise, _ you [A] will _ say, won't [D] forsake the ash [G] and clay.
_ _ _ _ Let's come home before the girls are grown, _ _ _ _ let's come [A]
home [D] tonight. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] I know we want [A] what's best for us, I [D] know it has to [A] come at a [Bm] price.
_ _ _ [G] I also know the [A] trouble that you [D] find when you [A] stop being [Bm] nice.
_ _ You look [G] around you _ one [A] _
day, what [D] you once lifted _ _ [G] instead. _ _ _ _
Let's come [F#m] home before the [Bm]
girls are [G] grown, _ _ _ _ let's come [A] _ home [D] tonight. _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Have you [Em] ever asked a [A] man to take your [D] place at the head of a [Bm]
table?
_ _ You could [G] shed away your [A] shame if in the [D] end he found you simply weren't able.
_ [Bm] _ You might [G]
find out _ you [A] could _ stay on the [D] ash and on [G] the clay. _ _ _
Come on home before the girls are grown, _ _ _ _ come on [A] _ home [D] tonight. _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [A] _ _
[G] Come _ on home before the girls are grown, _ _ _ _ come [A] on.
