Chords

[Verse 1]
   A           E                   A
My face to the sky, my back to the wind

                      D
Winter is entering my bones

    A            E                        A
The day has been long and night's drawing in

        A           D           E
And I'm thinking of heading for home

        A           D           A
And I'm thinking of heading for home
[Verse 2]
    A          E                        A
The cradle and grave, the fruit and the seed

                      D
The seasons mirror my own

    A            E                    A
The geese flying south are calling to me

        A           D           E
And I'm thinking of heading for home

        A           D           A
And I'm thinking of heading for home
[Verse 3]
    A         E                A
Always on the move with banner unfurled

                          D
Yet gathering moss on the stone

  A            E                        A
I sing for the children and cry for the world

        A           D           E
And I'm thinking of heading for home

        A           D           A
And I'm thinking of heading for home
[Verse 4]
   A             E                         A
As time's my old friend and death's my new kin

                           D
I'm not taking the journey alone

     A         E                         A
I am old, I am young, I am all that I've been

        A           D           E
And I'm thinking of heading for home

        A           D           A
And I'm thinking of heading for home
[Verse 5]
    A         E                    A
The memory of love will burn in my heart

                          D
Till embers and ashes are gone

    A             E                     A
The light in your window is my northern star

        A           D           E
And I'm thinking of heading for home

        A           D           A
And I'm thinking of heading for home
[Outro]
         A          D           E
And it's time I was heading for home

          A          D           A
Yeah it's time I was heading for home
