Homeward Bound

Simon + Garfunkel

1. I'm sitting in the railway station 
          Emi                      Gmi6 A7 
   got a ticket for my destination hm 
   Dmi 
   on a tour of one-night stands 
       Bb 
   my suitcase and guitar in hand 
       C 
   and ev'ry stop is neatly planned 
                    G7       C 
   for a poet and a one-man band.

R: Homeward Bound I wish I was Homeward Bound 
    C              Dmi     C  Bb F 
   home where my thought's escaping 
    C             Dmi C    Bb F 
   home where my music's playing 
    C             Dmi  C    Bb F    G7           C 
   home where my love lies waiting silently for me. 
2. Ev'ry day's an endless stream 
   of cigarettes and magazines hm 
   and each town looks the same to me 
   the movies and the factories 
   and ev'ry stranger's face I see 
   reminds me that I long to be. 
R: 
3. Tonight I'll sing my songs again 
   I'll play the game and pretend hm 
   but all my words come back to me 
   in shades of mediocrity 
   like emptiness in harmony 
   I need someone to comfort me.
