[Vere 1]
C G
Left my home a young lad
F G
Said goodbye to my poor mam and dad
C F C G
Walked away with my chest torn apart from the one who'd stolen my heart
C G
Followed the lads down below
F G
No job and no prospects had forced me to go
C F
Ten hour days on a mate's building site
C Am G
At least the future looked bright
[Pre-Chorus]
G
But the load wasn't nearly as heavy
G7 C F
As the ache in my heart that was gnawing at me calling me home
[Chorus]
N.C. G C G
And they'll all rise to meet me and greet me
C F G
And tell me the tales of the years I've been gone
C F G
Pour me a pint of black velvet
C F G
And raise up your glass when I'm singing my song
G7 C F
Back home is where I belong boys and girls
C G C Csus4 C
Back home is where i belong
[Verse 2]
C G
Glad of the wages I've made
F G
Proud of every foundation I've laid
C F
Spent a few good weekends with the gangs
C G
And we laughed as loud as we sang
C G
Phone calls from mother to say
F G
Why'd you have to go so far away?
C F
Lit a candle and sent out a prayer
C Am G
Let me know when it reaches you there
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Now i know that this won't be forever
G7 C F
And I know where i'm bound when my two feet are back on the ground
[Chorus]
N.C. G C G
And they'll all rise to meet me and greet me
C F G
And tell me the tales of the years I've been gone
C F G
Pour me a pint of black velvet
C F G
And raise up your glass when I'm singing my song
G7 C F
Back home is where I belong boys and girls
C G C Csus4 C
Back home is where i belong
[Bridge]
G
But the load wasn't nearly as heavy

As the ache in my heart that was gnawing at me calling me home

Calling me home
F
Calling me home
Calling me home
[Chorus]
N.C. G C G
And they'll all rise to meet me and greet me
C F G
And tell me the tales of the years I've been gone

Pour me a pint of black velvet
