[Verse 1]
Bb5              Gb5
This is for real
Eb5               Gb5
It'll be when the band starts playing
Bb5                    Gb5
There’s no way you’re coming home
Eb5            Ab5
So get used to being gone
Bb5                 Gb5
You wore out your worn-out welcome
Eb5                     Ab5
and now you dance to a different drum
Eb5                   Gb5
So pack your bags and get on the bus,
Eb5                        Ab5              Bb5
I’m one of them and you’re sure not one of us


[Chorus]
Db5       Ab5                 Eb5
Sound the alarm, my friend is coming home
Db5       Ab5               Eb5
Too many years since you’ve been gone
Db5       Ab5            Eb5
Face the facts, whatever happens next
Db5      Ab5    Eb5
Will be the ultimate test

[Verse]
Bb5         Gb5
I remember another time
Eb5              Ab5
When you were so innocent
Bb5         Gb5
Same as any other guy
Eb5             Ab5
But now you seem so different
Bb5          Gb5
Cold eyes a thousand yards
Eb5                       Ab5
But you were hard and you bled for the cause
Bb5                Gb5
Cold eyes and a thousand years
Eb5         Ab5              Bb5
I can’t imagine where you’ve gone


[Chorus]
Db5       Ab5                 Eb5
Sound the alarm, my friend is coming home
Db5       Ab5               Eb5
Too many years since you’ve been gone
Db5       Ab5            Eb5
Face the facts, whatever happens next
Db5      Ab5    Eb5
Will be the ultimate test


[Bridge]
Gb5             Db5
and I know you burn inside
Gb5             Db5
and I know the truth behind the lies
Gb5            Db5           Ab5
I know your world is torn apart
Gb5             Db5
and I know how hard you try
Gb5             Db5
and I know the part of you that died
Gb5             Db5            Ab5
and I know how far you had to come
Eb5
you…

N.C
Back in black was your favorite track
N.C
Peeling off down a one-lane highway
N.C
Nothing to lose, heading for the future,
N.C
Nowhere to go but we couldn’t stay
Bb5                         Gb5
When we were young, we were so naïve
Eb5                    Ab5
We had a dream that we lived to follow
Bb5                    Gb5
Looking back, I can see you now
Eb5                      Ab5
Til you went yours and I went my way


[Chorus]
Db5       Ab5                 Eb5
Sound the alarm, my friend is coming home
Db5       Ab5               Eb5
Too many years since you’ve been gone
Db5       Ab5            Eb5
Face the facts, whatever happens next
Db5      Ab5         Eb5
Will be the ultimate test


[Outro]
Db5      Ab5         Eb5
Will be the ultimate test
Db5      Ab5         Eb5
Will be the ultimate test
Db5      Ab5         Eb5
Will be the ultimate test
