[Verse 1]
G C
There's a blood-red sky
Em D
Over my head tonight
G C
And it's weighing down
Em D
On my ragged heart
G C
And the ghosts on this road
Em D
Dance like Fred Astaire
G C
Beautiful to behold
Em D
But hard to bear
G C
Mmmmmm Mmm
Em D
Mmmmmm Mmm mmm
G C
Mmmmmm Mmm
Em D
Mmmmmm Mmm mmm
[Verse 2]
G C
Well, I looked into
Em D
My father's dying eyes
G C
And he damned my soul
Em D
To the fires
G C
But I took his hand
Em D
And I held it tight
G C
And I sat by his deathbed
Em D
Through the cold dark night
[Chorus]
G C
'Cause I'm heading back to that
Em D
House of spirits
G C
Yes, I'm racing through those
Em D
City limits
G C
Yes, I'm heading back to that
Em D
House of spirits
G C
And I pray someday
Em D
It'll feel like home
G C
Yes, I pray someday
Em D
It'll feel like home
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
G C
Well, the ferry-man took him
Em D
'Cross the dark water
G C
Penny in his pocket
Em D
To pay the toll
G C
And I watched him go
Em D
That weary soul
G C
And I felt so tired
Em D
To be so alone
[Chorus]
G C
Yes I'm heading back to that
Em D
House of spirits
G C
Yes, I'm racing through those
Em D
City limits
G C
Yes, I'm heading back to that
Em D
House of spirits
G C
And I pray someday
Em D
It'll feel like home
G C
Yes, I pray someday
Em D
It'll feel like home
