Simon & Garfunkel - Homeward Bound
G
I'm sitting in the railway station
Bm
Dm E7
Got a ticket for my destination,
mh - mh
Am
F
On a tour of one night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand
G
D7 G
And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one man band
CHORUS:
C
G
C
Homeward bound, I wish I was, homeward bound
G
Am
Home, where my thought's escaping
G
Am
Home, where my music's playing
G
Am
D7 G
Home, where my love lies waiting silently for me
G
Everyday's an endless stream
Bm
Dm E7
Of cigarettes and magazines
Am
F
And each town looks the same for me, the movies and the factories
G
D7 G
And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be
CHORUS
G
Tonight I'll sing my songs again
Bm
Dm E7
I'll play the game and pretend
Am
F
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
G
D7 G
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me
C
G
C
Homeward bound, I wish I was, homeward bound
G
Am
Home, where my thought's escaping
G
Am
Home, where my music's playing
G
Am
D7
G
Home, where my love lies waiting silently for me
