C D
This is pretty close, you may need to play with the "And now..." a bit.
Like walk down C B A , bend F 1/4 step, to Am, maybe.
[Verse]
D C
It's been so long since I've been gone
D C D
Another day might be too long for me-e-e
D C
Traveling around I've had my fill
D C D
Of broken dreams and di-r-ty d-e-als
[Verse]
D C
A concrete jungle surrounding me
D C D
Many nights I've slept out in the streets
D C
I paid my dues and I changed my style
D C D
Seen hard times all over now
[Chorus]
Am C
I want to come home
C G/F#
It's been so long since I've been away
D Am C
And please, don't blame me 'cause I've tried
C G/F# D
I'll be coming home soon to your love... stay-ay-ay
[Verse]
D C
I miss old friends that I once had
D C D C D
The times they changed and I'll be glad when I - go home
D C
I don't know why this all came to me
D C D
But why I'm here I really can't see
C D
And now... (oh-o)
[Chorus]
Am
I want to come home
C G/F#
It's been so long since I've been away
D Am C
And plee-ee-ease, don't blame me 'cause I've tried
C G/F# D Bb
I'll be coming home soon to your love... staaay
[Bridge]
C D
Coming home to stay
D Bb
Coming home to your love, mama
C D
I've seen better days
[Verse]
D C
I miss old friends that I once had
D C D C D
Times ain't changed and I'll be glad when I - go home
D C
I don't know why the thought came to me
D C D
But why I'm here I really can't see-e-e
C D
And now...
[Chorus]
Am C
I want to come home
C G
