  			G                                       C   
You come home late and you come home early,   
D                                      G   
You come on big when you're feeling small.   
G                                          C   
You come home straight and you come home curly;   
D                                 G   
Sometimes you don't come home at all.   

                              C   
So what in the world's come over you   
D                                  G   
And what in heaven's name have you done?   
                                            C   
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness.   
D                                              G   
You're out there running just to be on the run   
   
Well, I got a heart that burns with a fever   
And I got a worried and a jealous mind.   
How can a love that'll last forever   
Get left so far behind?   
   
Chorus   
   
It's a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow;   
It's crossed the evil line today.   
Well, how can you ask about tomorrow   
When we ain't got one word to say?  
   
Chorus
