[Intro]
Eb Ab Fm7 Bb Eb
[Verse 1]
Eb
I didn't sleep at all last night,
Ab
I stayed up 'til the dawn,
Ab F7 Bb
Banging out the jigs and reels 'til everyone had gone,
Eb Ab
Singing some old shut-eyed songs I hadn't sung for years,
Fm7 Ab Bb Eb
Knocking back the brandy and the beer.
[Chorus]
Eb Fm
Back across the ocean to my home away from home
Bb Eb
I'm Glad to be returning but sad to have to go
Eb Ab Fm
I'd like to find a way to be two places at one time
Bb Eb
It's easy going back again but it's hard to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
Eb Ab
I had one bag too many just as I was set to leave
Ab Fm7 Bb
I was loaded down with bacon and with sausages and tea
Eb Ab
And I couldn't find my ticket as I'm walking out the door
Fm7 Ab Bb Eb
'Til I emptied all my bags out on the floor.
[Chorus]
Eb Fm
Back across the ocean to my home away from home
Bb Eb
I'm Glad to be returning but sad to have to go
Eb Ab Fm
I'd like to find a way to be two places at one time
Bb Eb
It's easy going back again but it's hard to say goodbye
[Verse 3]
Eb Ab
On board the plane I sip a drink while waiting for the meal,
Ab Fm7 Bb
Just trying not to let my head know how my stomach feels.
Eb Ab
There's a baby right behind me making sure that I won't sleep
Fm7 Ab Bb Eb
And the flight's too full to find another seat.
[Chorus]
Eb Fm
Back across the ocean to my home away from home
Bb Eb
I'm Glad to be returning but sad to have to go
Eb Ab Fm
I'd like to find a way to be two places at one time
Bb Eb
It's easy going back again but it's hard to say goodbye
[Verse 4]
Eb Ab
I fell asleep at last just as the plane is touching down
Ab Fm7 Bb
And I age ten years just waiting for the bags to come around
Eb Ab
And I make it home at last and I'm barely un-packed when
Fm7 Ab Bb Eb
I'm already making plans to go again.
[Chorus]
Eb Fm
Back across the ocean to my home away from home
Bb Eb
I'm Glad to be returning but sad to have to go
Eb Ab Fm
I'd like to find a way to be two places at one time
Bb Eb
It's easy going back again but it's hard to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Eb Fm
Back across the ocean to my home away from home
Bb Eb
I'm Glad to be returning but sad to have to go
Eb Ab Fm
I'd like to find a way to be two places at one time
Bb Eb
It's easy going back again but it's hard to say goodbye
