Capo: 1st Fret
Intro:    C    G    C     D    C    Em     D    G(2x)
GWe all move in circles from the Dday that we begin
EmWe wait around til we Crun aground before it Dall comes back aGgain
GHe was a husband and a Dfather just the same
EmBut when his country Cwent to war he Dknew they'd draw his Gname
GHe told them he was crazy but they Dwould not let him be
EmThey sent him off as a Cwandering hero Dlost in an unknown Gsea
Chorus 1:
He was Cfightin until Gnightfall, Cwaitin for the Gday 
Cthat peace would Emcome back and he could Dget back home aCgain
CWashed upon a Gnew land, Cfeelin like an Gold man
CHe wasn't gettin any Emyounger, he wants to Dget back home aGgain
Twenty years is a long time when you wanna be some place else
I see his name in everyone just like I see myself
Seven years with calypso, immortality for love
And I stared at the constellations wishin for the girl I was dreamin of
Summer times I've stood underneath the beer joint sign
Cause even ol' Odysseus got bored from time to time
Chorus 2:
Diggin in my billfold, countin out the spare change
Gotta take a Greyhound so I can get back home again
Spent the night with strangers, lookin for my friends
Better keep on lookin til I get back home again
Bridge:
EmOld times always Cstay the same and Dbrand new days are Emstrange
EmBut you never Close yourself and Aall you do is DchangeD/C  D/B  D/A  
All our days are short next to the rings around a tree
But trouble like the Cyclops keeps one great big eye on me
I won't run out of courage and I won't give up the game
Cause everybody's watchin you when nobody is your name
Chorus 3:
Stuck inside a mouse hole runnin' out of hope
Better keep on diggin til you get back home again
Make it through the worst pains, callin out the Gods' names
They'll stick besides you until you get home again
