Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
I'm sittin in a railway station
Got a ticket for my destination
On a tour of one night stands
My suitcase and guitar in hand
And every stop is neatly planned
For a poet and a one man band
Chorus
Homeward bound, I wish I was, Homeward bound
| Home, where my thoughts escaping
| Home, where my music's playing
| Home, where my love lies waiting
| Silently for me
Every day's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines
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
CHORUS
Tonight I'll sing my songs again
I'll play the game and pretend
But all my words come back to me
In shades of mediocrity
Like emptyness in harmony
I need someone to comfort me.
CHORUS ...
Silently for me ...
