Its Time To Go Home

Well she C looked so small She G looked so frail It was F like the world forgot her As G she stood outside the jail They C sit and stare TheyG rarely speak She F comes to see him The G same time every week Never C wants to leave But she G knows she must That the F yellow cab comes right on time And G scoops her up like a speck of dust When F its time to go G home Its F time to go G home F Where the night stayed G too long C In a world that’s Cm just gone Gwrong It’sF time G to go C home How C did one summer Become G 19 years The Alaskan F winters took their toll And G then they made it clear The C gill nets and the singers G Salmon and crab The dull F eyed girls of catchican That G took all that I had I couldC sell the boat Cash the G whole thing down Move F back to the forty eight Just tell G stories back in that small town F its time to go G home Its F time to go G home F Where the night stayed G too long C In a world that’s Cm just gone Gwrong It’sF time G to go C home Well C your T-shirt’s clean Like your G dungarees IN F eighteen days You G will be on your way overseas Sit C on the bed With a G warm six pack Ah it’s F not like they said But it’sG too late now to take it back So you C make some calls But G no one’s home You F nurse your beers And you G spend the long night by the telephone F its time to go G home Its F time to go G home F Where the night stayed G too long C In a world that’s C just gone Gwrong It’sF time G to go C home
