[Verse 1]
Am D Am G F
Always look so good on the outside,
Am D Am G F
When you get to believin' it's true,
C
Then you know,
E7
That you're on your way,
Am D Am G F
People tug on your shirt, say you're lucky,
Am D Am G F
You've got ev'rything you want,
C
But you don't,
E7
Yet, you dare not say.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C Fmaj7 C
Go downtown people runnin' around
Fmaj7 C
They climb slowly draggin' you downtown
Fmaj7 C
Horns make a dent in your mind
Fmaj7 Em7 Am Em7 D D7
Plush rooms make a blindin' your eye to see, blindin' me
[Chorus 1]
Am Am7/G F Fmaj7/E
Light, lovely light,
D7 C G/B
Won't ya' shine in my window,
Am Am7/G F Fmaj7/E
Love, precious love,
D7 G*
Won't ya' fill ev'ry room,
Am Fmaj7
Been too long on the road.

[Verse 2]
Am D Am F
Maybe cynics veins are my life blood
Am D Am G
Maybe bitin' the hand that I feed,
F C
So I'll try,
E7
Try to understand,
Am D Am G F
What it is that devours your freedom,
Am D Am G
Makes you drop what you used to hold ,
F C
In your head,
E7
All the things you planned.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7
Go upstairs with a someone who says she cares,
C
Like the devil she does,
Fmaj7 C
What comes ever into your mind,
Fmaj7 Em7 Am Em7 D7
Then gone, leavin' you with the coldest room, oldest gloom.
[Chorus 2]
Am Am7/G F Fmaj7/E
Warm, won't you be,
D7 C G/B
Please be there, in my winter,
Am Am7/G F Fmaj7/E
Love, precious love,
D7 G*
Won't ya' come, full circle,
Am Fmaj7
Been too long on the road.
[Interlude]
Am Fmaj7
[Bridge]
Am Fma7
How can I do this to myself?
Am Fma7
Have I taken leave of my senses?
Am Fma7
What kind of changes make a man,
Am Fma7
Want to tear down all his fences,
Am Fma7 C F G
Whoa, I'd like to know.
[Chorus 3]
Am Am7/G F Fmaj7/E
Home, ever home,
D7 C E7
How could I ever doubt you,
Am Am7/G F Fmaj7/E
Love, precious love,
D7 G G*
How could I live without you?
Am Fmaj7
Been too long on the road.
