Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 Well I woke one morning,

 Found you staring down at me

 You said 'I'll take my share now father, please'

 And you took your money, and you took your leave

 And you took my heart and turned your back on me

 Then you hit the town

 And you hit the bottle hard

 And you race round in your fancy cars

 And you blow all your money

 In brothel's beds and bars

 And before you know

 You're broke and times are hard

 And I still stand here waiting

 With my eyes fixed on the road

 And I fight back tears and wonder

 If you're ever coming home

 Don't you know son that I love you

 And I don't care where you've been

 So please come home

Intro

 And now you've hit bottom

 And all those open doors have shut

 And your hungry stomach's tied in knots

 But I know what you're thinking

 That you've troubled me enough

 But nothing could ever

Sepa - rate you from my love

 And I still stand here waiting

 With my eyes fixed on the road

 And I fight back tears and wonder

 If you're ever coming home

 Don't you know son that I love you

 And I don't care where you've been

 Yes and I'll be right here waiting

 Till you come around the bend

 Then I'll run to you and hold you close

 And won't let go again

 So please come home

 Please come home

 Don't you know son that I love you

 And I don't care where you've been

 So please come home
