Tuning: G C E A
Intro: C
CFog lifts from the harbor, Emdawn goes down to day
An Amagent crests the shadows of the Fnearby alleyway
CPiles of broken bricks, Emsign posts on the path
AmEvery moment points towards the Faftermath
Yeah
Interlude: C, Dm, F X2
CSailors straggle back from their Emnights out on the town
AmHopeless urchins from the city Fgather round
CSpies from imperial China Emwash in with the tide
Every Ambattle heads toward Fsurrender on both sides
Chorus: And I am Ccoming home to Amyou
With my Fown blood in my CmouGth
And I am Ccoming to Amyou
If it’s the Flast thing Cthat I Gdo
CBells ring in the tower, Emwolves howl in the hills
AmChalk marks show up on a few high Fwindowsills
And a Crabbit gives up somewhere, and a Emdozen hawks descend
AmEvery moment leads toward its Fown sad end
Yeah
(Interlude)
CShips loosed from their mornings Emcapsize and then they’re gone
AmSailors with no captains watch Fawhile and then move on
And an Cagent crests the shadows and I Emhead in her direction
AmAll roads lead toward the Fsame blocked intersection
Chorus: I am Ccoming home to Amyou
With my Fown blood in my CmoutGh
And I am Ccoming to Amyou
If it’s the Flast thing Cthat I Gdo
( Do the interlude 3 or 4 times and end on C )
Notes:
-When playing Em only play the top three strings like a power chord
-Number of times interlude will vary throughout the song but is still all the same
C, Dm, F
