VERSE
Am                        C                        G
he's flipping thru the channels looking for some skin
Am                   C                     G
and he's wanting something to pretend he doesn't hurt
                 Am       C        G
so bad inside
Am              C                    G
but the TV's leaking all the same pain he's got within
Am             C                      G
he feels like he's been taken for a sick and darkened ride
Am  C  G

VERSE
Am            C                      G
later he's talking to these people like they were his kin
Am             C               G
but the only thing in common here is the beer
Am               C                     G
he feels like no one knows what going out or coming in
Am            C               G
and none of them are really wanting to be here

CHORUS
            Am             C     D?   F   G    Am-C-D?-F-G
he says, "Father, i think i'm wanting to come home
Am  C   D?        F    G          Am-C-D?-F-G
i need more than all this pain
Am                   C     D?  F   G        Am-C-D?-F-G
Jesus, i've been a lonely man for too long
Am  C       D?           F    G           Am-C-D?-F-G
i been too many years caught out in the rain"

**after you play the chorus, do the intro part, then go right into the verse**

VERSE
Am        C                       G
he had a girl he used to call his own
Am             C          G
and he was as good to her, as good as he knew how
Am                     C               G
he loved her from the top of soul to tip of bone
Am         C           G
but she left him, she left him anyhow

BRIDGE
F                   Am-Asus
he's not finding it
F              Am-Asus
not what he needs
F              Am-Asus
nothing to hold him up
F                    G
to heal a soul that bleeds

CHORUS
