Song: Homeward Bound
Standard Tuning.Good version to play in performance
I'm sitting in the railway station.
Got a ticket for my destination, mmmm
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.
And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and one-man band.
Chorus:
Homeward bound, wish I was,
Homeward bound,
Home where my thought's escaping
Home where my music's playing,
Home where my love lays waiting
Silently for me.
Every day's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines, mmmm
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
Repeat chorus
Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
I'll play the game and pretend, mmmm
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me.
Repeat chorus
Silently for me.
