Tom: G5

        G5                                     D5                     B5  E5
1. I'm sittin' in the railway station, got a ticket for my destination,  mm.
     A5                                 F5
    on a tour of one night stands, my suitcase and guitar in hand,
         G5               
    and every stop is neatly planned, for a poet and a one man band
          C5               G5            C5
Homeward bound, I wish I was homeward bound,
  G5              F5
home, where my thought's escaping,
 G5              F5
home, where my music's playing,
 G5              F5                 D5        G5
home, where my love lies waiting silently for me.
    G5                               D5                       B5 E5
2. Everyday's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines,  mm
         A5                                    F5
    and each town looks the same to me , the movies and the factories,
         G5  
    and every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be.

+ REFRAIN

3. Tonight I'll sing my songs again, I'll play the game and pretend,  mm ,
         A5                                 F5
    but all my words come back to me, in shades of mediocrity,
          G5        
    like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me.
                       G5      E5        G5       E5
+ REFRAIN  + silently for me, silently for me  ... (rep. and fade)
