        A           E                 A                D
In the quiet, misty morning, when the moon has gone to bed,
         A                   F#m             A                E
When the sparrows stop their singing and the sky is clear and red,
          A                  E                  A                D
When the summer's ceased its gleaming, when the corn is past its prime,
     A                    F#m              D                 A
When adventure's lost its meaning, I'll be homeward bound in time.


        D          A                 D          E
Bind me not to the pasture. Chain me not to the plow.
       D               F#m              A             E
Set me free to find my calling and I'll return to you somehow.


        A                  E                  A             D
If you find it's me you're missing, if you're hoping I'll return,
         A                    F#m                A                 E
To your thoughts I'll soon be list'ning; in the road I'll stop and turn.
          A                E            A                D
Then the wind will set me racing as my journey nears its end,
        A              F#m              D                A
And the path I'll be retracing when I'm homeward bound again.


        D          A                 D          E         
Bind me not to the pasture. Chain me not to the plow.
       D               F#m              A             E
Set me free to find my calling and I'll return to you somehow.


        A           E                 A                D
In the quiet, misty morning, when the moon has gone to bed,
         A                   F#m              D                A
When the sparrows stop their singing, I?ll be homeward bound again.
