Lyrics

I’m count ing on a (Gm)mem o ry to get me (Dm)out of here.

I’m wait ing for the (Gm)fog a round this spook y lit tle (Dm)town to clear.

All this (C)time I spent be ing some one (Am)else ’s (Dm)friend.

Just one more (Eb)time for old time’s sake.

I’d like to go back (Am)home a (Dm)gain.

The world had sev en (Gm)won ders once up (Dm)on a time.

It’s sure e nough the (Gm)fav oured na tions aid ed (Dm)their de cline.

And all a (C)round me I’ve seen times like it (Am)was back (Dm)when.

But like back (Eb)then, I’d say a men if I could get back (A7)home a gain.

If I could (Bb)go back home,

if I could (Bb)go back home.

If I’d (Dm)nev er left I’d nev er have (C)known.

We all (Bb)dream of leav ing but (Bb)wind up (F)in the end

spend ing (Dm)all our time try’n a (Bb)get back (Am7)home a (Dm)gain.

Could have been a jail (Gm)break and the spot light (Dm)hit ting me.

Or was that just some (Gm)night club sing er back in (Dm)nine teen six three?

In the (C)old part of Va len cia on the (Am)coast of (Dm)Spain.

Nev er (Eb)tir ing once of hear ing songs a bout go ing

About “Home Again”

Can I sing "Home Again" karaoke-style with the lyrics on screen?
Yes — Karaoke mode puts the lyrics of "Home Again" on screen a line at a time and lights up each word in time, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word and the chord shown just above. The piano backing plays underneath in Bb, and you can transpose it to fit your voice.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Home Again" by Elton John in?
The backing track is in Bb at 84 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Home Again" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Home Again"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Home Again", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Home Again" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
Can I download the accompaniment for "Home Again"?
Yes — registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.
Who wrote "Home Again"?
"Home Again" was originally performed by Elton John. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
What other backing tracks by Elton John are available?
Other accompaniments by Elton John: "2 Fingers Of Whiskey", "A Good Heart", "Blue Eyes". Same toggle-the-melody, change-the-key setup.
Is there a karaoke version of "Home Again" with lyrics?
Yes — this is a free karaoke slide for "Home Again" by Elton John. The lyrics appear on screen a line at a time and each word lights up exactly when it's sung, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word. A backing plays underneath so you can just sing.
Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
Can I change the key of "Home Again" to match my voice or capo?
Yes. The original is in Bb, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "Home Again" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
