Villagers - Home

this is a beautiful song by villagers called home , pretty straightforward to play . enjoy : )

C Em
the night’s synthetic half – light
C Em
rolls over your steering wheel
Am G
i’m closing my eyes just for a while

F G
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )

C Em
the house , the first thing i see
C Em
filled up with a family
Am G F
surrounded by city and by sea
F G
can you call me when we’re almost halfway )
F G
will you wake me when we’re almost halfway
F G Am C
i don’t wanna take this trip alone

C Em
a saint is chasing a snake
C Em Am
for everybody’s sake
Am G
and so they go burning cars
F G
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )

C Em
the mother prepares the weapon
C Em Am
before handing it to son
G
who watches his Daddy runs

F G
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )
F G
will you wake me when we’re almost halfway
F G Am C
i don’t wanna take this trip alone
F Fm C
cause i’d never reach my home

C Em
the flames wander through the city
C Em Am
and set fire to the sea
G F
then out of the blaze appears a face
G
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )

C Em
a girl with a look in her eyes
C Em Am
as if to say , “i despise
G F
such poisonous family ties”
F G
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )

C Em
but a poison as sweet as nectar
C Em
could never forget or neglect her
Am G F
it carries her home and closes her eyes
F G
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )

C Em
so she goes back under , swallows the water
C Em
fixes her face like a good little daughter
Am G F
and follows her family , who follow a saint and a snake
G
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )
F G
will you wake me when we’re almost halfway
F G Am C
i don’t wanna take this trip alone
F Fm C
cause i’d never reach my home

C Em x2

F Fm C Em
no i’d never reach my home
F Fm C Em
no i’d never reach my home

C Em
my home

C Em
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )
( wake me when we’re almost halfway )
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )
( wake me when we’re almost halfway )
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )
( wake me when we’re almost halfway )
( can you call me when we’re almost halfway )
( wake me when we’re almost halfway )
