Over the Rhine - Called home

^FJust shy of Breakin’ Down ^DmThere’s a bend in the road that I have found ^CCalled home ^FTake a left at loneliness There’s a ^Dmplace to find forgiveness ^CCalled home

^CThe clouds adrift across the sky Like heaven’s laundry hung to dry ^FYou slowly feel it all will be r^Dmevealed ^DmWhere evening shadows come to fall ^COn the awful and the beautiful ^FEvery wound you feel that needs to ^Dmheal ^FSilence yearns to hear herself ^CSome long lost memory rings a bell ^FCalled home ^{Dm F Dm C}

^FOld pre-Civil War brick house ^DmStandin’ tall and straight somehow ^CCalled home ^FMailbox full of weariness ^DmAnd a word of hard won happiness ^CCalled home

^CLeave behind your Sunday best You know we couldn’t care less ^FOut here we’ve learned to leave the edges^Dm wild

^CAnd laughter – it gets handed down ^FRead it in the lines around a ^Dmsmile ^COur bodies’ motion comes to rest ^CWhen we are at last ^FCalled home ^FCalled home ^FCalled home
