VERSE 1 -

                     Dm                        F
I've seen his face before and I wonder what it means

                     Dm                                      F
Three lonely figures standing in my door and one he spoke to me

                    C                         Dm
With a letter from my home and a fever in his eyes

                      C                            Dm
A chill went through my bones and I bid my host goodbye

               F C Dm                   F C Dm
He gave me no reply and I never looked behind

CHORUS -

Dm
You gotta get us home right now

           F
There's no comfort in the cradle where we sleep

       Dm                                                 F
It's a land of dark and wide, it won't let us survive for free

VERSE 2 -

  Dm                                                F
I made my way on trains, through the bricks and the lanes

                           Dm
Where the burnt wrecks lay dead on the plains

                             F
And it leaves your heart the same

                     C                               Dm
But it must be in disguise if in this distance is my prize
     C                         Dm
Out here sometimes it can play a cruel trick on the mind

                    F C Dm                          F C Dm
It's playin' one on mine, such a cruel trick on the mind

You've gotta lay it in stone
