[Verse 1]
Shaken from a deep sleep
On a homeward bound flight
I hear the screams of a mother
As she pulls her baby in tight
Unsure what is happening'
Though I know that something's not right
I look out the window
And see fire light up the night
Ohhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhh
[Verse 2]
I hear your laughter
In bet-ween all their cries
As the smoke fills the room
Your scent fills me with delight
I feel your head on my shoulder
As we hold each other all night
I want you to know
That I love you as I die
[Chorus]
I'm not coming home tonight
I'm never coming home again
But I'll always be by your side
And I'll wait for you until the end
Until the end...
Until the end
[Verse 3]
I feel your tiny hands
As they wrap around me
As the plane nears the ground
That thought is so comfort-ing
Good night, sweet dreams
I love you all, always
The wind through the trees
Will be daddy whisper-ing
[Chorus]
I'm not coming home tonight
I'm never coming home again
But I'll always be by your side
And I'll wait for you until the end
Until the end...
Until the end
***Great song by the 12 Step Rebels. This is the first tab I have published so happy to hear any feedback or
corrections. An electric version is available on streaming formats, and a great acoustic version
(first version I heard of the song) is available on YouTube.
Video is titled “12 Step Rebels "Flight 613” 909 Sessions” and can be referenced for strumming.
D chord: When strumming the D chord, hammer your pinky on and off the little e string on the 3rd Fret
G chord: When strumming the G chord, alternate your pointer finger between the A and D strings on the 2nd
Fret (don’t think I got this strumming variation totally accurate)
C chord: When strumming the C chord, hammer your pinky on and off the B string on the 3rd Fret
