G D Packed my suitcase and I racked my brain Em C Bought a ticket on a late night train G D Took a taxi through the pourinʼ rain C D G Iʼm cominʼ home to you Flew from Boston out to San Jose Sae our old friends in Monterey Bay When they asked me if Iʼd like to stay I said Iʼm cominʼ home to you Chorus: G D Iʼm cominʼ home G C Made up my mind thatʼs what Iʼm gonna do G D Canʼt love nobody on the telephone C D G Iʼm cominʼ home to you They threw a party there from dusk ʼtill dawn Seems like everybody knows old sleepy John He said next time I better bring you along Iʼm cominʼ home to you They had fresh caught salmon on the bareques There were people jamminʼ all night to the blues Life is good out in Santa Cruz but Iʼm cominʼ home to you Chorus. I drove forever out to God knows where Come ten-thirty there was no one there They couldnʼt pay me but I didnʼt care Iʼm cominʼ home to you Iʼm feelinʼ better since I got your card I read it over and over when the road gets hard Ainʼt nothinʼ better than your own backyard Iʼm cominʼ home to you Chorus. Packed my suitcase and I racked my brain Bought a ticket on the late night train Took a taxi in the pourinʼ rain...
