Verse
Bb F
So I'm listening for the weather
Gm D
To predict the coming day.
Eb Bb
Leave all thought of expectation
F7
To the weatherman.
Bb F
No it doesn't really matter
Gm D
What it is he has to say
Eb Bb
'Cause tomorrow's keep on blowing in
F7
From somewhere.
Bridge
Eb
All the people that I know
Dsus4 D
In the apartments down below
Gm Gm7
Busy with their starring roles
C7
In their own tragedies.
Eb F Bb
Sunlight sends you on your way
Eb
And those restless thoughts that
Bb
Cling to yesterday.
F Gm
Never be afraid of change.
Eb
I'll call you on the phone.
Dm
I hate to leave you on your own
Eb Fsus4 F
But I'm coming home today.
VERSE
And this busy inner city
Has got nothing much to say
And I know how much you're
Hanging 'round the letterbox.
And I'm sure that as I'm writing
You'll be somewhere on your way
In a supermarket checkout
Or a restaurant.
Bridge
I've been doing what I'm told.
I've been busy growing old
And the days are getting cold
but that's alright with me.
Eb Dm Cm7 Fsus F
Yes I'm co-ming home today.
Verse chords played once over while harmonica solo plays
Bridge
I've been doing what I'm told.
I've been busy growing old
And the days are getting cold
But that's alright with me.
{Chorus}
