Intro: [E B A] x2

Verse: [E B A]

E (022100@1)        B (x2444x@1)        A (x02220@1)    The trains roll by my porch

E (022100@1)             B (x2444x@1)         ADown (x02220@1)here where nothing can live

E (022100@1)         BAnd (x2444x@1)I've been smoking too much

C#m (x13321@4)    ABecause (x02220@1)I am no exception

E (022100@1)         B (x2444x@1)      AYou (x02220@1)knew that already, I think

If you want salvation
Then you ought to go see a priest
'Cause forgiveness from those that we hurt
In this world never was guaranteed

Chorus: [E C#m B A]

E (022100@1)               C#mI'm (x13321@4)coming home, it's late again

B (x2444x@1)       AI'm (x02220@1)high as I've ever been

E (022100@1)                C#mYou're (x13321@4)sitting up, you're in our bed

B (x2444x@1)            ACrying (x02220@1)for a ghost again

E (022100@1)              C#mNo (x13321@4)room could be as dark

B (x2444x@1)        AOr (x02220@1)as empty as ours is

E (022100@1)             C#m'Cause (x13321@4)I'm at home but I'm not here

B (x2444x@1)     AAnd (x02220@1)I never am

Verse: [E B A]

I wonder how many friends
Roll past my house in the night?
In boxcars they sleep
With hearts stashed in their backpacks
They'll make California all right
A promise from me
Is just a lie I ain't told yet
So I'm ready to die
But I'm not willing to watch
You watch me die here in our bed

Chorus: [E C#m B A]

I'm lying down, I've been nodding out
Since I don't know when
The lights are on, you're standing up
Screaming at a ghost again
Darling, I'm home; hell I ain't left
This house of ours in days
But I'm not here; I never am
So I just can't stay

Outro: [E C#m A B]

E (022100@1)          C#m (x13321@4)          AMy (x02220@1)darling, I'm never coming back

BFrom (x2444x@1)where I'm going

E (022100@1)          C#m (x13321@4)         A (x02220@1)  [You can play the Bhere, (x2444x@1)I usually don't]
My darling, I'm never coming home

E (022100@1)          C#m (x13321@4)         AMy (x02220@1)darling, I'm never coming back

BFrom (x2444x@1)where I'm going

E (022100@1)          C#m (x13321@4)         AMy (x02220@1)darling, I'm never coming home

B             [I usually finish on E but improvising a bit is nice]
Never coming home again
