Homebird

	  		(Pattern 1) 

C                   G        Am 
The orange was the size of a watermelon to me, 
Dm       C               G 
Well at least that is my memory. 
C                G         Am 
Sunshine made my bare feet burn upon the road, 
Dm  C G   Am   G 
Far a-way we'd roam. 

C      G             Am 
I'd be howling out a song in the back seat, 
Dm             C          G 
The boys would laugh and tease about my black feet. 
C           G                  Am 
They'd tell stories that would warm my soul,

Mo-tor-bikes and chrome, 
Gsus4           G 
Jimmy could not wait to get home.

C                   G        Am 
Everywhere we went just looked the same to me,  
Dm           C              G 
The skies were blue and the grass was green, 
C            G                 Am 
I wonder how different I might see them now, 
Dm  C G   Am   G 
Yet I see them somehow. 

C           G                         Am 
Through the fallen memories when that angel baby sings, 
Dm            C              G 
Oh the little magic that his solo brings, 
C      G            Am 
Making up songs and words and singing from the soul, 
Dm C   G   Am  F       Em 
Oh the stories told, 
Gsus4            G 
None but him and Jimmy could know.
