Lyrics

When you (C)left this town with your (Gm)win dows down and the (F)wil der ness in side.

Let the (C)ex its pass, all the (Gm)tar and glass ’til the (F)road and sky a lign.

From the (C)stran gers in this town,

they (F)raise you up just to (Dm)cut you down.

Oh, An ge la, it’s a (Gm)long time com ing.

And your (C)Vol vo lights lit up (Gm)green and white with the (F)cit ies on the signs.

But you (C)held your course to some (Gm)dis tant war in the (F)cor ners of your mind.

From the (C)sec ond time a round,

the (F)on ly love I to (Dm)ev er found.

Oh, An ge la, it’s a (Gm)long time com ing.

And your Home at last.

Were you (C)safe and warm in your (Gm)coat of arms with your (F)fin gers in a fist?

Did you (C)hear the notes, all those (Gm)stat ic codes in the (F)ra di o a byss?

The (C)stran gers in this town,

they (F)raised you up just to (Dm)cut you down.

Oh, An ge la, it’s a (Gm)long time com ing.

Oh, An ge la, spent your (Gm)whole life run ning a way.

Home at last.

Home at last.

Va can cy, ho tel room, lost in me, lost in you.

An ge la, I’m on my knees, I be long, I be lieve.

Home at last.

Home at last.

Home at last.

Home at last.

Mmm,

mmm.

Mmm,

mmm.

Mmm,

mmm.
