Intro: [A E D] x2
Verse: [A E D]
A E D
The trains roll by my porch
A E D
Down here where nothing can live
A E
And I've been smoking too much
F#m D
Because I am no exception
A E D
You knew that already I think
If you want salvation
Then you ought to go see a priest
Cause forgiveness from those that we hurt
In this world never was guaranteed
Chorus: [A F#m E D]
A F#m
I'm coming home it's late again
E D
I'm high as I've ever been
A F#m
You're sitting up you're in our bed
E D
Crying for a ghost again
A F#m
No room could be as dark
E D
Or as empty as ours is
A F#m
Cause I'm at home but I'm not here
E D
And I never am
Verse: [A E D]
I wonder how many friends
Roll past my house in the night
In boxcars they sleep
With hearts stashed in their backpacks
They'll make California all right
A promise from me
Is just a lie I ain't told yet
So I'm ready to die
But I'm not willing to watch
You watch me die here in our bed
Chorus: [A F#m E D]
I'm lying down I've been nodding out
Since I don't know when
The lights are on you're standing up
Screaming at a ghost again
Darling I'm home hell I ain't left
This house of ours in days
But I'm not here I never am
So I just can't stay
Outro: [A F#m D E]
A F#m D
My darling I'm never coming back
E
From where I'm going
A F#m D
My darling I'm never coming home
A F#m D
My darling I'm never coming back
E
From where I'm going
A F#m D
My darling I'm never coming home
E
Never coming home again
