Intro:
Eb Bb Cm Ab

Verse 1:
          Eb    Bb
Another sunset somewhere
     Cm          Ab
that I cannot remember
       Eb       Bb
Is it Monday or Monday
     Cm              Ab
or what was I just saying?
     Eb        Bb
The hours of driving
      Cm             Ab
with nothing on the radio
    Eb        Bb
to sing to except you
         Cm          Ab
So I'm writing you a song – I'll call it

Chorus:
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year

Verse 2:
    Eb        Bb
My signal is fading,
    Cm              Ab
it burns me up that I can't hear you
   Eb                 Bb
A bad mood from some bad food,
    Cm         Ab
no California salad
    Eb          Bb
Forget these disasters
 Cm             Ab
maybe this new town will save us
   Eb            Bb
A suitcase and a new face
   Cm             Ab
A room of people that still love me

Chorus:
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year
Eb                Bb
   "Is that you, baby?"
             Cm            Ab
– the first words I wanna hear and I
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year

Middle 8:
Eb                   Ab         Bb
   It's something I can't live without
Eb                          Ab         Bb
   You're something like a perfect destination
           Eb      Ab             Bb
If I get there I swear I'm never leaving
       Eb      Ab          Bb
It's there I know I can believe in

Chorus:
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year

Verse 3:
              Eb            Bb
So here's a truckstop, I'm dirty,
  Cm          Ab
thirty and I miss you
          Eb        Bb
but it's too far to get home
    Cm                   Ab
A crash would raise the rates right
           Eb      Bb
thru the rooftop, sunrise
 Cm              Ab
Man I wish that you could see this,
Eb           Bb
Be this, believe this, but
Cm             Ab
I can see you everywhere.

Chorus:
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year   (Gotta get home...)
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year   (Gotta get home...)
Eb                Bb
   "Is that you, baby?"
             Cm            Ab
– the first words I wanna hear and I
Eb            Bb        Cm      Ab
   Gotta get home this year
