[Intro] G D G D [Verse 1]
G    D          A7                           D
Home before dark, before the night comes falling

D6         A7    A7                 D
   Sun going down, and I can here you calling

Em7              D  Em7                     D
   I followed my star, just to be where you are

G                       A7        D    Em7
   But I couldn`t get far, in the dark
[Verse 2]
D               G D          G           A7
Home before dark, before the day deserts me

D                    G   D            G                A7
   I looked for my truth, knowing the truth might hurt me

Em7                  D   Em7                   D
   Been travelling light, just ahead of the night

G                       A7           D
   To be getting home right, before dark
[Chorus]
G                     Dm7
   I`ve been searching, can`t explain it

Eb                    D                A7
   Looked for reasons, what I found in me

G                 Dm7
   Know for certain, things are changing

Eb                 D              A7
   I`ve been changing, now I need to be

A7               D
Home where I can sleep
[Verse 3]
G              D   A7                         D
   Home before dark, before the light escapes me

D6            A7                                   D
   Be at your side, that`s where the journey takes me

Em7                   D Em7           D
   And I`ve been afraid, if I lost my way

G                         A7       D
   That I wouldn`t be saved by the dark
[Chorus]
G                  Dm7
   I`ve got stories, I want to tell you

Eb                     D                     A7  A7
   You need to hear them, maybe then you`ll see

G                   Dm7
   Then I found them, never knowing

Eb                D               A7
   They were going, on inside of me

A7                     D
   It`s where I had to be
[Verse 4]
G               D     A7                         D
    Home before dark, know you`ll be waiting for me

D6               A7                              D
    Be at your door, were talking to four in the morning

Em7              D Em          D
    Been so alone, in places unknown

G                        A7         D
    But I knew I`d get home, before dark

           G           A7      D
Because of you I`d get home, before dark
