https://soundcloud.com/mojo01/coming-back-home 

capo first fret

D                                                      G                                           D
you try nd go home but there's nothing but a whispering wind
D                                                                    G                                                    A
but you thought you hear voices so you turned round and went back again
G                                                  A
but there's nothing there but a weed covered lot
          D                                            G           
old shed in the back where you used to smoke pot
D                                                G                                                       D
this coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be
G                                                  A                                                 D
no coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be


well your folks are all gone and your friends have moved away
but you had to come back because this place calls to you every day
but theirs no one there that you used used to know
just a rusty old car with nothing to show
this coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be
no coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be

sometimes you wonder why the hell did it take you so long
but the reason escapes you like the words to a long lost song
so you wander the streets of your old neighbor hood
you'd love to go back if only you could 
this coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be
no coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be

you found out the hard way that nothing ever stays the same
so you look around for somewhere or some one to place the blame
but theirs no one there its only you
just a face in the mirror so it has to be true
this coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be
no coming back home aint nothing like you thought it would be

Re: coming back home

Mojo- You have done it again - you always come through a classic line that just sticks in your head !
This is  another classic song by you!  perfect voice for this song - I always enjoy your songs.  I'm sure this resonates with many people.

Thanks for sharing.

Re: coming back home

Just perfect. Great lyrics and I love that lazy rythem. If we had campfires here in the UK it would make a great campfire song, or if we were allowed into the pubs it would make a great bar room song.
