[Verse 1]
Em                      G                            Am
When I stand before you shining in the early morning sun
                Cadd9                                  Em
When I feel the engines roar and I think of what we've done
                      G                                 Am
Oh, the bittersweet reflection as we kiss the earth goodbye
                        Cadd9                             D
As the waves and echoes of the towns become the ghosts of time


[Pre-Chorus]
D                   C   Em
Over borders that divide the earthbound tribes
G  D                          C Em
No creed and no religion just a hundred winged souls
   G    D                         C   Em
We will ride this Thunderbird, silver shadows on the earth
G D                                  C G/B Am G D/F# Em
A thousand leagues away, our land of birth


[Chorus]
C    D        Em         G
To Albion's land, coming home
       C              Em
When I see the runway lights
       C              Em              D   C
In the misty dawn the night is fading fast
       Em         G            C             Em
Coming home, far away as their vapor trails align
           C                 Em              D   C
Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay


[Verse 2]
Em                     G
Curving on the edge of daylight
                      Am
Til it slips into the void
                         Cadd9                             Em
Waited in the long night dreaming til the sun is born again
                            G                               Am
Stretched the fingers of my hand, covered countries with my span
                       Cadd9                      D
Just a lonely satellite, speck of dust and cosmic sand


[Pre-Chorus]
D                   C   Em                    G
Over borders that divide the earthbound tribes
D                        C   Em
Flown the dark Atlantic over mariners' stormy graves
   G    D                         C   Em
We will ride this Thunderbird, silver shadows on the earth
G D                                  C G/B Am G D/F# Em
A thousand leagues away, our land of birth


[Chorus]
C    D        Em         G
To Albion's land, coming home
       C              Em
When I see the runway lights
       C              Em              D   C
In the misty dawn the night is fading fast
       Em         G            C             Em
Coming home, far away as their vapor trails align
           C                 Em              D   C
Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay

Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay

Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay
