Standard (EADGBE)
It s a long and lonely highway,
when you re traveling all alone
I was on my way to nowhere,
but now I m coming home,
I m coming home
I ve been running through the fire,
I ve been burning for so long
If I took it any higher,
baby, I would be still be gone
And now I m coming home,
coming home, I m coming home
I m coming home, coming home,
I m coming home
Well, my home was really never,
on a far and distant shore
If I stayed away forever,
I could never miss you more
And so I m coming home,
coming home, I m coming home
I m coming home, coming home,
I m coming home
I think of all the years gone by,
never even wondered why,
I never touched the ground
All the time that s come and gone,
all the nights I ve spent alone,
and now I m homeward bound
I heard the thunder over Canaan,
and I heard the angels cry
And their voices came revealing,
as you live, so will you die
Oh, I m coming home,
coming home, I m coming home
I m coming home, coming home,
I m coming home
I m coming home
I m coming home
I m coming home . . .
