(Intro Riff)
The grass looked greener on the other side
(Intro Riff)
So I tried to, snatch myself from your hand
(Intro Riff)
Caught a boat to anywhere but Nineveh
(Intro Riff)
And, well, you know, I got spit back on dry land.
[Bridge] (Strumming)
D A G D A G Ooooh.....Ooooh....
[Verse 2]
(Intro Riff)
Give me purity and give me continence
(Intro Riff)
But oh no, not yet
(Intro Riff)
Like a coin hiding in the corner
(Intro Riff)
Trying not to be swept
(Intro Riff)
I was trying not to be swept.
[Pre-Chorus]
A Kicking against these goads G D D Sure did cut up my feet A And didn't your hands get bloody G As you washed them clean D And you washed them clean.

[Chorus]
D A G Here I am again, back where I began D A G Try as I may I can't get away from you D A G And all these roads that lead me to roam, Bring me back home. D A G D A G D A G Here I am again, back where I began.
[Verse 3]
(Intro Riff)
So you have yourself your ninety nine (ninety nine)
(Intro Riff)
Isn't that enough for you
(Intro Riff)
Still you followed me to the shadowed valley
(Intro Riff)
Carried me on your shoulders too.
[Pre-Chorus]
A G D D I've done the work of Sisyphus A G D Thinking that I could get over this hill A G D D But the one thing I can't get over now...(is the) A G D (Fill 1) Is the force of your will.
[Chorus]
D A G Here I am again, back where I began D A G Try as I may I can't get away from you D A G And all these roads that lead me to roam,
Bring me back home.
D A G Here I am again, back where I began. D A G Here I am again, back where I began D A G (Fill 1) Try as I may I can't get away from you D A G And all these roads that lead me to roam,
Bring me back home.
D A G D A Here I am again, back where I began. G D A G ....where I beg------a-----n G D A G ....where I beg------a-----n G D A G D ....where I began.
