A E A D
In the quiet, misty morning, when the moon has gone to bed,
A F#m A E
When the sparrows stop their singing and the sky is clear and red,
A E A D
When the summer's ceased its gleaming, when the corn is past its prime,
A F#m D A
When adventure's lost its meaning, I'll be homeward bound in time.
D A D E
Bind me not to the pasture. Chain me not to the plow.
D F#m A E
Set me free to find my calling and I'll return to you somehow.
A E A D
If you find it's me you're missing, if you're hoping I'll return,
A F#m A E
To your thoughts I'll soon be list'ning; in the road I'll stop and turn.
A E A D
Then the wind will set me racing as my journey nears its end,
A F#m D A
And the path I'll be retracing when I'm homeward bound again.
D A D E
Bind me not to the pasture. Chain me not to the plow.
D F#m A E
Set me free to find my calling and I'll return to you somehow.
A E A D
In the quiet, misty morning, when the moon has gone to bed,
A F#m D A
When the sparrows stop their singing, I’ll be homeward bound again.
