G5                                       C5 
You come home late and you come home early 
D5                                      G5 
You come on big when you're feeling small 
G5                                          C5 
You come home straight and you come home curly 
D5                                 G5 
Sometimes you don't come home at all 


                              C5 
So what in the world's come over you 
D5                                  G5 
And what in heaven's name have I done 
                                            C5 
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness 
D5                                              G5 
{D}You're out there running just to be on the run  
 
Well I got a heart that burns with a fever 
And I got a worried and a jealous mind 
How can a love that'll last forever 
Get left so far behind 
 
Chorus 
 
It's a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow 
It's crossed the evil line today 
Well, how can you ask about tomorrow 
We ain't got one word to say 
 
Chorus
