Coming Home
View chords used in this chart
Em G Am
When I stand before you shining in the early morning sun
C Em
When I feel the engines roar and I think of what we've done
G Am
Oh the bittersweet reflection as we kiss the earth goodbye
C
As the waves and echoes of the towns become the ghosts of time
Dm Em
Over borders that divide the earthbound tribes
Dm Em
No creed and no religion just a hundred winged souls
Dm Em
e will ride this thunderbird, silver shadows on the earth
Dm C ( Am B C B A G F#m D Em )
A thousand leagues away, our land of birth
Em
To Albion's land
[Refrão] G C Em
Coming home when I see the runway lights
C Em D ( Am B C )
In the misty dawn the night is fading fast
Em G C Em
Coming home, far away as their vapor trails align
C Em D C
Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay
Em G Am
Curving on the edge of daylight til it slips into the void
C Em
Waited in the long night, dreaming til the sun is born again
G Am
Stretched the fingers of my hand, covered countries with my span
C
Just a lonely satellite, speck of dust and cosmic sand
Dm Em
Over borders that divide the earthbound tribes
Dm Em
No creed and no religion just a hundred winged souls
Dm Em
We will ride this thunderbird, silver shadows on the earth
Dm C ( Am B C B A G F#m D Em )
A thousand leagues away, our land of birth
Em
To Albion's land
[Refrão] G C Em
Coming home when I see the runway lights
C Em D ( Am B C )
In the misty dawn the night is fading fast
Em G C Em
Coming home, far away as their vapor trails align
C Em D C
Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay
