Hi these chords are pretty simple they might not sound exact but they are a good foundation to start off of
Not really a guitar song but a catchy one if you sing it high and breathy like Ellie Goulding
Just a few different chords! Easy peasy!
CAPO 2 FRET
        D                A   Em                         G
In the quiet misty morning, when the moon has gone to bed,
When the spaDrrows stop their siAnging and the sEmky is clear and reGd
When the suDmmer's ceased it's gAleaming
And the cEmorn is past it's prGime
When adveDnture's lost it's meaAning
I'll be homEmeward bound in tiDme
Bind me nDot to the pastAure
Chain me nEmot to the ploGw
Set me frDee to find my calAling
And I'll rEmeturn to you someGhow
If you fDind it's me you're misAsing
If you're hopEming I'll retuGrn
To your thoDughts I'll soon be listA'ning
And in the roEmad I'll stop and turGn
Then the wiDnd will set me racAing
As my jouEmrney nears it's enGd
And the pDath I'll be retraAcing
When I'm homEmeward bound agaGin
Bind me nDot to the pasAture
Chain me nEmot to the ploGw
Set me frDee to find my caAlling
And I'll rEmeturn to you somehGow
In the quDiet misty morAning
When the moEmon has gone to beGd
When the spaDrrows stop their sinAging
            Em*            D* 
I'll be homeward bound again
*once

CAPO 2 FRET

D A Em G

In the quiet misty morning, when the moon has gone to bed,

D A Em G

When the sparrows stop their singing and the sky is clear and red

D A

When the summer's ceased it's gleaming

Em G

And the corn is past it's prime

D A

When adventure's lost it's meaning

Em D

I'll be homeward bound in time

D A

Bind me not to the pasture

Em G

Chain me not to the plow

D A

Set me free to find my calling

Em G

And I'll return to you somehow

D A

If you find it's me you're missing

Em G

If you're hoping I'll return

D A

To your thoughts I'll soon be list'ning

Em G

And in the road I'll stop and turn

D A

Then the wind will set me racing

Em G

As my journey nears it's end

D A

And the path I'll be retracing

Em G

When I'm homeward bound again

D A

Bind me not to the pasture

Em G

Chain me not to the plow

D A

Set me free to find my calling

Em G

And I'll return to you somehow

D A

In the quiet misty morning

Em G

When the moon has gone to bed

D A

When the sparrows stop their singing

Em D

I'll be homeward bound again
