Verse 1

    A
    *
I'm sitting in the railway station
      C#m/G#        C#dim/G       F#
Got a ticket for my destination,  mm-mmm
Bm                                G
On a tour of one-night stands, my suitcase and guitar in hand
    A                                  E                A
And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and one-man band

Chorus

A        D             A
Homeward bound, I wish I was
         D
Homeward bound
A             Bm        A       G D/A
Home where my thought's escaping
A             Bm      A G      D/A
Home where my music's   playing
A             Bm   A    G      D/A
Home where my love lies waiting
E        A
Silently for me

Verse 2

A
*
Every day's an endless stream
   C#m/G#         C#dim/G     F#
Of cigarettes and magazines,  mm-mmm
    Bm                                  G
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
    A                           E                         A
And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be

Chorus

A        D             A
Homeward bound, I wish I was
         D
Homeward bound
A             Bm        A       G D/A
Home where my thought's escaping
A             Bm      A G      D/A
Home where my music's   playing
A             Bm   A    G      D/A
Home where my love lies waiting
E        A
Silently for me

Verse 3

  A
  *
Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
     C#m/G#            C#dim/G   F#
I'll play the game and pretend,  mm-mmm
    Bm                              G
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
     A                      E                       A
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me

Chorus

A        D               A
Homeward bound, I wish I was
         D
Homeward bound
A             Bm        A       G D/A
Home where my thought's escaping
A             Bm      A G      D/A
Home where my music's   playing
A             Bm   A    G      D/A
Home where my love lies waiting
E        A
Silently for me

Outro

C#m/G#   C#dim/G A
Silently for me
