Elton John - Home Again

( intro )
A# F ( 3x )
A# F G Am A# C

( verses 1 , 2 )

Dm Gm Dm
i’m counting on a memory to get me out of here
Dm Gm Dm
i’m waiting for the fog around this spooky little town to clear
C C A Dm
all this time i spent being someone else’s friend
D# A# Am Dm
just one more time , for old time’s sake i’d like to go back home again

Dm Gm Dm
the world had seven wonders once upon a time
Dm Gm Dm
it’s sure enough the favored nations aided their decline
C C A Dm
and all around me i’ve seen times like it was back when
D# A
but like back then , i’d say a men if i could get back home again

( chorus : )
A# F
if i could go back home ,
A# F
if i could go back home
Dm Dm C
if i’d never left , i’d never have known
A# Am
we all dream of leaving ,
A# F G A
but wind up in the end
Dm A# Am Dm
spending all our time trying to get back home again

( verse 3 > play as verse 2 )
could have been a jailbreak and a spotlight hitting me
or was i just some nightclub singer , back in 1963
in the old part of valencia , on the coast of spain
never tiring once of hearing songs about going home again

[ chorus x2 : ]
if i could go back home , if i could go back home
if i’d never left , i’d never have known
we all dream of leaving , but wind up in the end
spending all our time trying to get back home again
