G C
I left my home by the ocean
G C
I left my love by the sea
G C D Dsus2
Dreaming I could sing my songs in the city
G C
I thought the streets of London
G C
Would be paved with gold
G C
But the only gold was in the setting sun
D G
And these city nights are so cold
D Dsus2
And you know that feeling when you've been too long
D7 D7sus2
And you wanna go home and it's so strong
G C G C
I'm going home, I'm going home
G D Em D
Oh, the leaves are falling and the wind is calling
C Am D D7
And I must get on the road
G C G C
You'll be alone, you'll be alone
G D Em D
But if you're crying to the rhythm of the falling rain
C Am D D7 G
It's alright, I'm on my way
C G C G C G C
I'm going home, I'm going home, yeah
G C
Jilly she's got a smile in her eye
G C
And a bed just right for two
G C D Dsus2
Silly how much I love her, but I do
G C
Sunny days will be here again
G C
She whispered in my ear
G C
Oh Lord, it's funny how much I've missed the country rain
D G
That's a sound I love to hear

And I know that feeling and I've been too long
