Hope, you dig it, even it's a different version. But I thought there are so many covers, trying to be like the original - so...
\"Homeward Bound\" was written by Paul Simon after returning to England in the spring of 1964. During this time, he met Kathy Chitty, who was working as a ticket-taker at the club. The two hit it off instantly, but it became clear that Simon desired to perform in London, resulting in an emotional farewell.

Homeward Bound
G
I'm sittin’ in the railway station,
Bm Dm6 E7
got a ticket for my destination. Mm mm mm
Am F
on a tour of one night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand
G D7 G
and every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one man band.
G C G C
Homeward Bound, I wish I was, Homeward Bound.
G Am F C
Home where my thought’s escaping
G Am F C
Home where my music’s playing,
G Am F C D7 G
Home where my love lies waiting Silently for me
G Bm Dm6
Every day’s an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines.
E7 Am
Mm mm mm And each town looks the same to me,
F
the movies and the factories and
G D7 G
Every stranger’s face I see reminds me that I long to be,
G C G C
Homeward Bound, I wish I was, Homeward Bound.....
G
Tonight I’ll sing my songs again,
Bm Dm6 E7
I’ll play the game and pretend. Mm mm mm
Am F
But all my words come back too me in shades of mediocrity
G D7 G
like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me
G C G C
Homeward Bound, I wish I was, Homeward Bound.....
