Bb majorBb FF (3x)
Bb majorBb FF G+G A minorAm Bb majorBb C majorC
(Verses 1,2)
DmDm G minorGm DmDm
I'm counting on a memory to get me out of here
DmDm G minorGm DmDm
I'm waiting for the fog around this spooky little town to clear
C majorC C majorC A augmentedA DmDm
All this time I spent being someone else's friend
Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb A minorAm DmDm
Just one more time, for old time's sake I'd like to go back home again
DmDm G minorGm DmDm
The world had seven wonders once upon a time
DmDm G minorGm DmDm
It's sure enough the favored nations aided their decline
C majorC C majorC A augmentedA DmDm
And all around me I've seen times like it was back when
Eb MajorEb A augmentedA
But like back then, I'd say a men if I could get back home again
(Chorus:)
Bb majorBb FF
If I could go back home,
Bb majorBb FF
if I could go back home
DmDm DmDm C majorC
If I'd never left, I'd never have known
Bb majorBb A minorAm
We all dream of leaving,
Bb majorBb FF G+G A augmentedA
but wind up in the end
DmDm Bb majorBb A minorAm DmDm
Spending all our time trying to get back home again
(Verse 3 > play as Verse 2)
Could have been a jailbreak and a spotlight hitting me
Or was I just some nightclub singer, back in 1963
In the old part of Valencia, on the coast of Spain
Never tiring once of hearing songs about going home again
[Chorus x2:]
If I could go back home, if I could go back home
If I'd never left, I'd never have known
We all dream of leaving, but wind up in the end
Spending all our time trying to get back home again
