[Verse 1]
C F G C
It's so lonely on the moon
Am G F C
I hope that I can come home soon
Am G F C
Will it be the same when I return?
Am G F C
I know there's a lesson I have learned
C F G C
Why does the night no more inspire?
Am G F C
As I raise the sun, I start to tire
Am G F C
I long for you to be with me
Am G F Am
But there are things that cannot be
Am G F C
And it takes some time away to see
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
And I've spent half my life
Em Am
waiting for your call
F Am
Why do I feel I don't belong
Bb G
anywhere at all?
[Chorus]
C F
When I come home
Am G
and see you again
C F
I'm gonna bring the night
Am G
as my oldest friend
C F
I'm gonna stay with you,
Am G
and won't repeat mistakes
C F
I no longer want to roam
Bb G
I'll do what ever it takes
C
to come home
[Verse 2]
C F G C
There once lived in me a great fire
Am G F C
But it's been cooled by overwhelmed desire
Am G F C
There's a crater but it's just bone deep
Am G F C
And it deepens everytime I sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
I've spent a thousand years
Em Am
wishing on a star
F Am
I feel so close but I've
Bb G
never been so far
Am F C G
Am F C G
[Bridge]
Am F C G
Why can't I tell you you were right all along?
Am F C G
Why must I forge a tragic plight with my song?
Am F C G
Why can't we meet between the moon and the sun?
Am F G
Why must the sun shine when the night is done?
[Chorus]
C F
When you come home
Am G
and see me again
C F
I'm gonna welcome you
Am G
as my oldest friend
C F
I'm gonna stay with you,
Am G
and won't repeat mistakes
C F
I don't wanna be alone,
Bb G
I'll do whatever it takes
C
to bring you home
[Outro]
C F G C
It's so lonely on the moon
Am G F C
I hope that I can come home soon
Am G F C
For a coming sunset I will yearn
Am G F C
The longest day will end and I will return
