Silently for me.


Every day's an endless stream,
Of cigarettes and magazines.
    a                <----------------- only change in 2 verse
And each town looks the same to me,
The movies and the factories.

And every stranger's face I see,

Reminds me that I long to be,

Homeward bound, I wish I was, homeward bound.

Home, where my thought's escaping,

Home, where my music's playing,

Home, where my love lies waiting,

Silently for me.


Tonight I'll sing my songs again,

I'll play the game and pretend.

But all my words come back to me,

In shades of mediocrity.

Like emptiness in harmony,

I need someone to comfort me.


Homeward bound, I wish I was, homeward bound.

Home, where my thought's escaping,

Home, where my music's playing,

Home, where my love lies waiting,

Silently for me,

D/F#         F6     G

Silently for me.
