G C9
Well I woke one morning,
D C9
found you staring down at me,
G C9 Em7 D
you said "I'll take my share now, father please",
G C9
and you took your money,
D C9
and you took your leave,
G C9 Em7 D C9
you drilled my heart and turned your back on me...
G C9
And you hit the town,
D C9
and you hit the bottle hard,
G C9 Em7 D G C9
you race 'round in your fancy cars and you blow all your money,
G C9
on brothels, beds, and bars,
G C9 Em7 D C9
before you know your broken times get hard...
D9/F# G
I still stand here waiting
C9 G
with my eyes fixed on the road,
D9/F# G
and I fight back tears and I wonder,
C9 G D9/F#
if you're ever coming home,
Em7 C9
don't you know son that I love you,
G D9/F#
and I don't care where you've been,
( G C9 D C9 G C9 Em7 D )
so please come home.
G C9
And now you've hit bottom ,
D C9
all those open doors have shut,
G C9 Em7 D
and you're hungry stomach's tied in knots,
G C9
but I know what you're thinking,
D C9
that you troubled me enough,
G C9 Em7 D C9
nothing could ever separate you from my love...
D9/F# G
I still stand here waiting,
C9 G
with my eyes fixed on the road,
D9/F# G
and I fight back tears and I wonder,
C9 G D9/F#
if you're ever coming home,
Em7 C9
don't you know son that I love you,
G D
and I don't care where you've been,
Em7 C9
yes and i'll be right here waiting,
G D
'til you come around the bend,
Em7 D
and I run to you and hold you close,
G C9 D9/F#
won't let go again,
Am
so please come home,
C
please come home...
Em7 C9
don't you know son that I love you,
G D9/F#
and I don't care where you've been,
C9
so please come home.
