G                      C
 I left my home by the ocean

G                    C
 I left my love by the sea

G                  C                      D Dsus2
 Dreaming I could sing my songs in the city

G                          C
 I thought the streets of London

G                     C
 Would be paved with gold

         G                     C
 But the only gold was in the setting sun

            D                G
 And these city nights are so cold

           D                            Dsus2
 And you know that feeling when you've been too long

          D7                     D7sus2
 And you wanna go home and it's so strong

G           C   G           C
 I'm going home, I'm going home

          G          D               Em      D
 Oh, the leaves are falling and the wind is calling

        C    Am         D D7
 And I must get on the road

G            C   G            C
 You'll be alone, you'll be alone

                 G             D            Em         D
 But if you're crying to the rhythm of the falling rain

      C      Am D    D7     G
 It's alright,   I'm on my way

            C   G           C        G C G C
 I'm going home, I'm going home, yeah

G                    C
 Jilly she's got a smile in her eye

          G                 C
 And a bed just right for two

G                  C               D Dsus2
 Silly how much I love her, but I do

G                    C
 Sunny days will be here again

G                    C
 She whispered in my ear

                G                              C
 Oh Lord, it's funny how much I've missed the country rain

           D               G
 That's a sound I love to hear

         D                   Dsus2
 And I know that feeling and I've been too long

        D7                     D7sus2
 And I wanna go home and it's so strong

G           C   G           C
 I'm going home, I'm going home

          G          D               Em      D
 Oh, the leaves are falling and the wind is calling

        C    Am         D D7
 And I must get on the road

G            C   G            C
 You'll be alone, you'll be alone

                 G             D            Em         D
 But if you're crying to the rhythm of the falling rain

      C      Am D    D7     G
 It's alright,   I'm on my way

            C   G           C        G C G C
 I'm going home, I'm going home, yeah

              G
 Oh, hold on darling

             C
 I'm on the way

          G
 Hold on darling

             C
 I'm coming home

          G
 Hold on darling

          C
 Hold on darling

          G
 Hold on darling

             C
 I'm coming home

             G C
 I'm on the way

             G
 I'm coming home...
