Introdução:
C
Leave my suitcase by the car I'll bring it in in the mornin'
G C F
Stack my guitar case just inside the door
Dm
Pet the dog too tired to wag his tail
G
Check the mail and walk on down the hallway
C
I've got to fix these old floor boards
G Am
Wash up at the sink, glance in the mirror
G F Em Dm
Who is that man who ain't been here in three long weeks or maybe more?
G
All this gettin' off the road has got me ragged to the bone and coming home
C
There ain't no homecoming party
Pop a yellow pill, the kind for sleepin' through
F
The sound of wakin' children when the daylight starts to show
Dm
And it's silent up the carpet stairs and peek into the nursery
G C
Where the little ones are dreamin' sweet and low
Am
I can hear 'em cryin', "daddy where you been?
C F C Dm
And did you bring me back a present from a distant sunny shore?"
G
All this gettin' off the road has got me ragged to the bone and coming home
C
There ain't no homecoming party
Am F
Oh it's 10, 000 places and 20, 000 faces
G C
And half a million miles I'm bound to row
Am F
And I'm weary and wasted, and all that I can taste is
Dm G G7
One lonesome tear on the tip of my tongue
C F
She must've left the light on I'll just slip into the bed and let it burn
Dm
And when our bodies touch I'l pull away and not disturb her
G C
Even though I long for love so much it hurts
Am
And maybe we won't argue in the mornin'
C F C Dm7 Dm
We'll be makin' love and just let that old calendar turn
G G7
All this gettin' off the road has got me ragged to the bone and coming home
G C
Sure ain't no homecoming party
