  Father, mother and sister, trading smiles and playful shoves

And their son is coming back home, coming to stay, whoa oh oh, whoa oh

  And she dreams of the summertime with him, upon arri  val


DmDm           Gm7Gm7       F6F6          Bb9Bb9

   Hearts beating quicker, minds racing fast


Fm7Fm7                  D7/F#D7/F#
   Then suddenly shouts of laughter,


     E7/G#      Am7Am7
 tears of joy, flashes of light

C majorC        G/C       Bb/CBb/C     F/CF/C   G/BG/B
  Now, as the people go separate ways, I stand ama azed


C majorC         G/C       Bb/CBb/C     F/CF/C  G/BG/B
  Everyone has a story you could tell, upon arri  val


DmDm            Gm7Gm7       F6F6       Bb9Bb9
  Still a girl in dark glasses waits until everyone's gone


    Am7Am7       D7D7         Dm7/G     G7G7
And she weeps, she's all alone, her love is lost, whoa oh, oh,


     Abmaj7-5/G . . . . . . .
Ooh, oh, oh
