(capo 1ª casa)
A
I'm sitting in the railway station.
Amaj7 A7 F#
Got a ticket for my destination, mmmm
Bm G
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.
A E7 A
And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and one-man band.
(chorus)
D A
Homeward bound, wish I was,
D
Homeward bound,
A Asus4
Home where my thought's escaping
A Asus4
Home where my music's playing,
A Asus4
Home where my love lays waiting
E A
Silently for me.
A
Ev'ry day's an endless stream
Amaj7 A7 F#
Of cigarettes and magazines, mmmm
Bm G
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
A E7 A
And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
(repeate chorus)
A
Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
Amaj7 A7 F#
I'll play the game and pretend, mmmm
Bm G
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
A E7 A
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me.
(repeate chorus)
Amaj7 A7 A
Silently for me.
