Tom : E
Intro starts w/ upstroked E, then an E major scale run:
E
One night in Iowa, he and I in a borrowed car
C#m
went driving in the summer, promises in every star
A
out in the distance I could hear some people laughing
F#m
I felt my heart beat back a weekend's worth of sadness
E
There was a farmhouse that had long since been deserted
F#m
we stopped and carved our hearts into the wooden surface
A
we thought just for an instant we could see the future
F#m
we thought for once we knew what really was important
C E A
H Coming up close
O A E
R everything sounds like welcome home
U A
S Come home
[Refrão]
A E
and oh, by the way
F#m
don't you know that I could make
F#m A
a dream that's barely half-awake come true
A E
I wanted to say -
C#m
but anything I could have said
[Próxima Parte]
C#m A
I felt somehow that you already knew
Then it turns around like this:
A|------x----x----x----2-----------------------------------------------------|
E|------x----x----x----0-----------------------------------------------------|
We got back in the car and listened to a Dylan tape
we drove around the fields until it started getting late
and I went back to my hotel room on the highway
and he just got back in his car and drove away
Coming up close
everything sounds like welcome home
Come home
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
I found somehow that you already knew
[Trecho 2x]
Coming up close
everything sounds like welcome home
Come home
Come on home
