Homeward Bound

[Verse 1]
    G
I'm sitting in the railway station.
      G/F#                     G/F Em
Got a ticket to my destination.
Am                              F
On a tour of onenight stands my suitcase and guitar in
hand.
    G                                  Dadd11/A
And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a oneman
     G
band.

[Chorus]
         C
Homeward bound,
        G
I wish I was,
         C
Homeward bound,
G                      Am  G/D F
Home where my thought's  escaping,
Em G               Am G/D  F   Em
   Home where my mu__sic's playing,
G                 Am    G/D F  Em
Home where my love  lies    waiting
D           G
Silently for me.

[Verse 2]
G
Every day's an endless stream
   G/F#                     G/F Em
Of cigarettes and magazines.
    Am
And each town looks the same to me,
    F
the movies and the factories
    G                                  Dadd11/A
And every stranger's face I see reminds        me that I
           G
long to be,

[Chorus]
         C
Homeward bound,
        G
I wish I was,
         C
Homeward bound,
G                      Am  G/D F
Home where my thought's  escaping,
Em G                Am G/D F   Em
   Home where my mus__ic's playing,
G                 Am    G/D F   Em
Home where my love  lies    waiting
D           G
Silently for me.

[Verse 3]
  G
Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
     G/F#                      G/F Em
I'll play the game and pretend.
    Am                              F
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
     G                      Dadd11/A                      G
Like emptiness in harmony I need    someone to comfort me.

[Chorus]
         C
Homeward bound,
         G
I wish I was,
         C
Homeward bound,
G                      Am  G/D F
Home where my thought's  escaping,
Em G               Am G/D  F   Em
   Home where my mu__sic's playing,
G                 Am    G/D F   Em
Home where my love  lies    waiting

[Outro]
D           G
Silently for me.
G/F#            G/F   G
    Silently for   me.
