When I picture my hometown, it&rsquo s always raining
C D G
No one on the streets or in the park
G D/F# Em
It&rsquo s like my mind is trying to protect me
C D G
From letting ancient ghosts back in my heart
Em D/F# G
That house still casts a shadow on the corner
Em D/F# G
The attic windows shuttered from the years
Em D/F# G
Our old oak tree surrendered to the weather
C D
But it doesn&rsquo t bring me tears
C
I stumble down these avenues
G D/F# Em D
Every turn I take is a dead end
C
So I&rsquo m leaving home again
D G
Leaving home again
G D/F# Em
The images come fast and go right through me
C D G
It comes to me in sepia and rain
G D/F# Em
I watch it streaming past just like a movie
C D G
But there&rsquo s something lurking just outside the frame
Em D/F# G
A stray dog by the playground standing guard
Em D/F# G
The alley by firehouse downtown
Em D/F# G
The wayward baseball in that widow&rsquo s yard
C D
I don&rsquo t think we ever found
C
I stumble down these avenues
G D/F# Em D
Every turn I take is a dead end
C
So I&rsquo m leaving home again
D G
Leaving home again
F
And I&rsquo m a thousand miles away
C
But it&rsquo s just like a tattoo
F
You can leave a place behind
C D
But you&rsquo ll always know it stayed inside of you
Em D/F# G
When I picture my hometown, it&rsquo s always raining
Em D/F# G
So today&rsquo s as good as any to go back
Em D/F# G
Two miles from the exit on that highway
C D
But I think I&rsquo ll drive on past
C
I stumble down these avenues
G D/F# Em D
Every turn I take is a dead end
C
So I&rsquo m leaving home again
D C
Leaving home again
