Verse 1:

          G         C
There's a blood-red sky
        Em   D
Over my head tonight
         G        C
And it's weighing down
      Em     D
On my ragged heart
        G              C
And the ghosts on this road
           Em   D
Dance like Fred Astaire
G            C
Beautiful to behold
    Em      D
But hard to bear

G      C
Mmmmmm Mmm
Em     D
Mmmmmm Mmm mmm
G      C
Mmmmmm Mmm
Em     D
Mmmmmm Mmm mmm

Verse 2:
       G        C
Well, I looked into
            Em    D
My father's dying eyes
       G         C
And he damned my soul
Em     D
To the fires
      G        C
But I took his hand
      Em      D
And I held it tight
      G          C
And I sat by his deathbed
            Em        D
Through the cold dark night


Chorus:
           G       C
'Cause I'm heading back to that

It'll feel like home

Verse 3:
          G         C
Well, the ferry-man took him
           Em   D
'Cross the dark water
G            C
Penny in his pocket
   Em      D
To pay the toll
      G           C
And I watched him go
     Em    D
That weary soul
      G       C
And I felt so tired
   Em    D
To be so alone
