Coming Home chords
Roy Orbison 1986 (Orbison, W. Jennings, J.D. Souther)
E MajorE
It's a long and lonely highway,
B7B7
when you're traveling all alone
A augmentedA
I was on my way to nowhere,
E MajorE B7B7 A augmentedA
but now I'm coming home,
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I'm coming home
E MajorE
I've been running through the fire,
B7B7
I've been burning for so long
E MajorE
If I took it any higher,
B7B7
baby, I would be still be gone
A augmentedA
And now I'm coming home,
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
coming home, I'm coming home
A augmentedA
I'm coming home, coming home,
Amaj7Amaj7 E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I'm coming home
E MajorE
Well, my home was really never,
B7B7
on a far and distant shore
E MajorE
If I stayed away forever,
B7B7
I could never miss you more
A augmentedA
And so I'm coming home,
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
coming home, I'm coming home
A augmentedA
I'm coming home, coming home,
Amaj7Amaj7 E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I'm coming home
F# minorF#m
I think of all the years gone by,
G#G#
never even wondered why,
A augmentedA E MajorE
I never touched the ground
F# minorF#m
All the time that's come and gone,
G#G#
all the nights I've spent alone,
A augmentedA BB B7B7
and now I'm homeward bound
E MajorE
I heard the thunder over Canaan,
B7B7
and I heard the angels cry
E MajorE
And their voices came revealing,
B7B7 A augmentedA E MajorE
as you live, so will you die
A augmentedA
Oh, I'm coming home,
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
coming home, I'm coming home
A augmentedA
I'm coming home, coming home,
Amaj7Amaj7 E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I'm coming home
A augmentedA Amaj7Amaj7 A augmentedA A majorA
I'm coming home
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I'm coming home
A augmentedA Amaj7Amaj7
I'm coming home . . .
