ChorusEmDEm
Well I once heard a story about a run-down home
EmGB
Where a man and his thoughts lived all alone
EmGDB
He tried to live, no effort was shown
EmGDEm
He’s slowly finding a way back home
Verse 1EmDEm
He had a family with smiles and frowns
EmGB
They never could solve his way to be down
EmGDB
Cos he’s one dog who don’t want a bone
EmGDEm
He’s slowly finding a way back home
-
EmDEm
He had a nice house with windows and doors
EmGB
He said to his wife what’s mine is yours
EmGDB
But the seeds of deception are soon to be sown
EmGDEm
He’s slowly finding a way back home
-
EmDEm
His children have left but the rooms are still there
EmGB
His misses the noise and the scents in their hair
EmGDB
But far from the nest the babies have flown
EmGDEm
He’s slowly finding a way back home
-
EmDEm
His wife was an angel sent from above
EmGB
He never returned her kisses or love
EmGDB
But soon he’d found that she’d overgrown
EmGDEm
This man who’s finding a way back home
-
EmDEm
So the leaves are all dead in this broken man’s June
EmGB
The rain will still fall on the sunny afternoon
EmGDB
He stares at the floor, no more to roam
EmGDEm
He’s slowly finding a way back home
ChorusEmDEm
Well I once heard a story about a run-down home
EmGB
Where a man with regrets lived all alone
EmGDB
He tried to live, no effort was shown
EmGDEm
He’ll never find a way back home
