Fingerpicking/Strumming pattern:
[A#]I am sitting in the railway station.
Got a [Dm/A]ticket for my [Fm6/G#]destination.
[G7]Mm-m-m
[Cm]On a tour of one-night stands, my
[G#]suitcase and guitar in hand
and [A#]ev'ry stop is neatly planned
for a poet and a [F7]one-man [A#]band.
Homeward [D#]bound,
I wish I [A#]were,
Homeward [D#]bound,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm]thought's [A#] [G#] [D#]escaping,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm] [A#]music's [G#] [D#]playing,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm]love [A#]lies [G#] [D#]waiting
[F]silently [A#]for me.
Ev'ry day's an endless stream
Of [Dm/A]cigarettes and [Fm6/G#]magazines.
[G7]Mmm
And [Cm]each town looks the same to
me, the [G#]movies and the factories
And [A#]ev'ry stranger's face I see
reminds me that I [F7]long to [A#]be,
homeward [D#]bound.
I wish I [A#]was,
Homeward [D#]bound,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm]thought's [A#] [G#] [D#]escaping,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm] [A#]music's [G#] [D#]playing,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm]love [A#]lies [G#] [D#]waiting
[F]Silently [A#]for me.
Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
I'll [Dm/A]play the game and
[Fm6/G#]pretend.
But [G7] [Cm]all my words come back to me
[G#]
in shades of mediocrity
Like [A#]emptiness in harmony I need
someone to [F7]comfort [A#]me.
Homeward [D#]bound.
I wish I [A#]was,
Homeward [D#]bound.
[A#]Home, where my [Cm]thought's [A#] [G#] [D#]escaping,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm] [A#]music's [G#] [D#]playing,
[A#]Home, where my [Cm]love [A#]lies [G#] [D#]waiting
[F]Silently [A#]for [A#maj7/A]me.
Silently [A#7/G#]for [A#] [D#] [A#]me.
