I'm Comin' Home

	  		I'm Comin' Home 
Robert Earl Keen 
   G                               D 
Packed my suitcase, I racked my brain 
     Em                           C 
I bought a ticket on a late night train 
       G                                D 
Took a taxi through the pouring rain 
       C              D            G 
I'm comin' home to you 

Flew from Boston out to San Jose 
Saw our old friends in Monterrey Bay 
When they asked me if I'd like to stay I said 
I'm coming home to you 

 G   D 
I'm coming home 
G                                        C 
Made up my mind that's what I'm gonna do 
G                       D 
Can't love nobody on a telephone 
  C           D           G 
I'm coming home to you
 


They through a party there from dusk till dawn 
Seems like everybody knows old Sleepy John 
He said next time I better bring you along 
I'm coming home to you 

They got fresh caught salmon on a barbecue 
There were people jammin' to the all night blues 
Life is good out in Santa Cruz 
But I'm coming home to you 

Chorus 

I drove forever out to God knows where 
Come ten thirty there was no one there 
They couldn't pay me but I didn't care 
I'm comin home to you 

I'm feeling better since I got your card 
I read it over and over when the road gets hard 
Nothing better than your old back yard 
I'm coming home to you 

Chorus x2 

Packed my suitcase, I racked my brain 
I bought a ticket on a late night train 
Took a taxi through the pouring rain
