[Verse]

F#m                         
All laid over
                  D          A
This pain will drown out the sun
                     E
Mother, I'm coming home
                      A
But the war has just begun
                              D
All the boys will await the arising tide
                     A
On a pier with a traveled gun
               E
I like the adrenaline, it's like a fucking drug
                    F#m
Mother, I'm coming home

[Verse 2]

F#m                          D         A
I've discovered dreams that speak in tongues
                    E
Mother, my mind it runs
                         A
Cause the war has just begun
                                D
Every night I can hear the approaching high
                          A
In a hole but I fear I'd run
                                    E
I've got a thing for the edge of a life to come undone
                    
Mother, I'm coming home

F#m
Old and tired
              D             A
Scarred and bruised to the bone
                    E
Mother, I'm coming home
                          A
And the war has just been won
                              D
All my friends can await the big ships to arrive
                              A
But I'd rather not join the fun
                           E
I need a minute to maybe soak in the sight
                F#m
Of a town that I came from
