Chords with lyrics

Foy Vance ?" Homebird
I wanted to make a more complete version of the song.
The tab is at the bottom of the page.
Thanks to the two tab writers that came first!


(Pattern 1)
C majorC          G+G    A minorAm
The orange was the size of a watermelon to me,
DmDm    C majorC        G+G
Well at least that is my memory.
C majorC        G+G     A minorAm
Sunshine made my bare feet burn upon the road,
DmDm C majorC G+G  A minorAm  G+G
Far a-way we'd roam.

C majorC   G+G       A minorAm
I'd be howling out a song in the back seat,
DmDm       C majorC     G+G
The boys would laugh and tease about my black feet.
C majorC      G+G         A minorAm
They'd tell stories that would warm my soul,

(Pattern 2)
DmDm C majorC  G+G   A minorAm  FF    E minorEm
Mo-tor-bikes and chrome,
Gsus4Gsus4      G+G
Jimmy could not wait to get home.

(Pattern 3)
C majorC  DmDm  FF  C majorC
Homebird sing,
DmDm   C majorC     G+G
Fly me high on an angel's wing.
(Pattern 4)
C majorC  DmDm  FF  C majorC
Homebird sing,
C majorC   G/BG/B A minorAm   G+G    C majorC
Leave out nothing, tell me everything.


C majorC          G+G    A minorAm
Everywhere we went just looked the same to me,
DmDm      C majorC       G+G
The skies were blue and the grass was green,
C majorC      G+G         A minorAm
I wonder how different I might see them now,
DmDm C majorC G+G  A minorAm  G+G
Yet I see them somehow.

C majorC      G+G             A minorAm
Through the fallen memories when that angel baby sings,
DmDm      C majorC       G+G
Oh the little magic that his solo brings,
C majorC   G+G      A minorAm
Making up songs and words and singing from the soul,
DmDm C majorC  G+G  A minorAm FF    E minorEm
Oh the stories told,
Gsus4Gsus4      G+G
None but him and Jimmy could know.

C majorC  DmDm  FF  C majorC
Homebird sing,
DmDm   C majorC     G+G
Fly me high on an angel's wing.
C majorC  DmDm  FF  C majorC
Homebird sing,
C majorC   G/BG/B A minorAm   G+G    C majorC
Leave out nothing, tell me everything.

C majorC  DmDm  FF  C majorC
Homebird sing,
DmDm   C majorC     G+G
Fly me high on an angel's wing.
C majorC  DmDm  FF  C majorC
Homebird sing,
C majorC   G/BG/B A minorAm   G+G    C majorC
Leave out nothing, tell me everything.
