[Intro]

Cmaj7/G C/G G F


[Verse 1]

  C/G                         G    
I dreamed about killing you again last night
       F
And it felt alright to me
C/G                      G
Dying on the banks of Embarcadero skies
  F
I sat and watched you bleed
C/G                   G
Buried you alive in a fireworks display
F
Raining down on me
C/G                       G
Your cold, hot blood ran away from me
       F
To the sea


[Interlude]

Cmaj7/G C/G G F
Cmaj7/G C/G G F


[Verse 2]

  C/G                    G
I printed my name on the back of a leaf
      F
And I watched it float away
C/G                          G                                
The hope I had in a notebook full of white, dry pages
    F
Was all I tried to save
    C/G                   G
But the wind blew me back via Chicago
       F
In the middle of the night, 
    C/G                       G
And all without fight, at the crush of veils 
         F
and starlight


[Solo]

Cmaj7/G C/G G F


[Verse 3]

  C/G                     G
I know I'll make it back, one of these days 
    F
And turn on your tv
C/G                   G
To watch a man with a face like mine
      F
Being chased down a busy street
C/G                    G
When he gets caught, I won't get up
    F
And I won't go to sleep
C/G              G
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
F
Via Chicago

[Verse 3]

      C/G                              G
Where the cups are cracked and hooked, above the sink
     F
They make me think
C/G                          G
Crumbling ladder tears don't fall, they shine 
          F
Down your shoulders
    C/G                      G
And crawling is screw faster lash
               F
I blow it with kisses
C/G                 G
I rest my head on a pillowy star
      F      
And a cracked door moon
                             C/G
That says I haven't gone too far


[Solo]

C/G G F
 

[Chorus]

C/G
I'm coming home
G
I'm coming home
F
I'm coming home, via Chicago
C/G
I'm coming home
G
I'm coming home
F
I'm coming home


[Outro]

C/G
Searching for a home
G
Searching for a home
F
Searching for a home, via Chicago
C/G
I'm coming home
G               F
I'm coming home  
C/G G F
C/G G F
