Dm7
On being comatose
             F5
Don’t worry just yet
Dm7 
You’ll feel it in your toes 
              F5
But not what comes next 
Dm7
This mantras typical 
                      F5
For all the boys back at home 
Dm7
It isn’t cynical 
               F5
But passed on their own 
Pré Refrão

G5
She wasn’t sick with it 
Bb5
She had a power to her name 
F5
She dropped out with a kid and wondered how things got this way
G5 
And all this weight she bears 
Bb5
Pulling the corners of her back 
F5                         C5
Somehow it all just seems so sad 

             G5
They’re all here 
I’m out there 
              Bb5
They’ve been stuck all these years 
       D5
So tell me 
                C5
Why do I get so down 
When I visit my hometown
            G5 
They’re all here 
I’m out there 
          Bb5
I’ll move west in a year 
         D5
So tell me 
                 C5
Why do I get so down 
                      Bb5
When I visit my hometown 
Homebound 
Homebound

( D5  F5 )

Dm7
In school they had their fun 
             F5
White garland necks 
Dm7
But with the system won 
             F5
A blue collar death 
G5
He kept his cool with it 
Bb5
Sustained the scarlet on his neck
F5
His hands were calloused with the labor and the ten years spent
G5 
And all this weight he bears 
Bb5
Affixed a fixture on his chest
                                                                  
F5                                Bb5              
He kicks and screams in hopes these final words may still not be 
    C5
his last 
     D5
I’m sick 
      
Of trying
       C5 
These dreams 
          Bb5
Keep dying off
    D5
My youth 
Is lost
      C5
Count up
     Bb5
The cost 
How can I make it stop 

            G5
They’re all here I’m out there
             Bb5 
They’ve been stuck all these years
   D5                                                                    
So tell me 
                 C5
Why do I get so down 
When I visit my hometown

         G5
I’m out there 
          Bb5
I’ll move west 

In a year 
       D5
So tell me
                   C5
Why do I get so down 
When I visit my hometown
Bb5 
Homebound 
            D5
Homebound
