[Intro]
CB/CAm7C * Fmaj7Gmaj7C
[Verse 1]
CB/CAm7C* I'll lose some sales and my boss won't be happy, FCAmC But I can't stop listening to the sound FCDm Of two soft voices Am Blended in perfection CGFmaj7GC From the reels of this record that I've found.
Every day there's a boy in the mirror asking me... What are you doing here? Finding all my previous motives Growing increasingly unclear.
[Break]
CB/CAm7C* Fmaj7Gmaj7C
[Verse 2]
I've travelled far and I've burned all the bridges I believed as soon as I hit land All the other options held before me, Would wither in the light of my plan.
So I'll lose some sales and my boss won't be happy, But there's only one thing on my mind Searching boxes underneath the counter, On a chance that on a tape I'd find...
[Bridge]
Dm A song for CB/CAm someone who needs somewhere C * to long for.
Fmaj7 Homesick. CB/CFmaj7 Because I no longer know CB/CAm7C * Fmaj7Gmaj7C where home is.
