COMIN' HOME
by Allan Kilgour (c) 2008
[E] Its been a while since I been home
[A] Ive been on the [E] roam
[E] Ive Laboured long for many men
[A] since I don’t know when
[E] But I’m [B7] commin’ home today
[A] Cause I’ve spent all my pay [E]
[E] My face is weathered brow is beat
[A] Ive been out in the [E] heat
[E] Ive walked a lifetime on the road
[A] but now my pace has slowed
[E] So I’m [B7] commin’ home today
[A] Ill be home to stay [E]
chorus
[D] The cows are in the shed and
[A] The hens are in the henhouse on the [E] farm
[D] The corn is in the fields and
[A] The hay is in the [B7] barn
[E] I left my home an angry man
[A] I roamed without a [E] plan
[E] My life has been a life of change
[A] Away from my home range
[E] And I’m [B7] commin’ home today
[A] I’m walkin’ all the way [E]
[E] Im ready now to be the one
[A] I hope that you [E] listen
[E] If you have left a space for me
[A] In your heart Ill be
[E] ‘cause I’m [B7] commin’ home today
[A] our love we can replay [E]
repeat chorus
[E] Forgive me leaving years ago
[A] my heartache made it [E] so
[E] Ive put the memories from my life
[A] I want you back my wife
[E] So I’m [B7] commin’ home today
[A] commin’ without delay [E]
[E] Together we can work the land
[A] as lovers hand in [E] hand
[E] The promises I made to you
[A] At last I can make true
[E] So I’m [B7] commin’ home today
[A] and I hope that that’s OK [E]
repeat chorus
This is my first version of the song and it can be heard here http://soundclick.com/share?songid=6405263
A new version should be replacing it shortly once my jam buddy has done the lead on it for me.
I hope you guys ( and gals ) enjoy as that is what this journey is all about.
Cheers.
