  			G                        D 
Packed my suitcase and I racked my brain 
Em                   C 
Bought a ticket on a late night train 
G                       D 
Took a taxi through the pourin' rain 
C          D       G 
I'm comin' home to you 


Flew from Boston out to San Jose 
Sae our old friends in Monterey Bay 
When they asked me if I'd like to stay 
I said I'm comin' home to you 



G D 
I'm comin' home 
G                             C 
Made up my mind that's what I'm gonna do 
G                        D 
Can't love nobody on the telephone 
C          D       G 
I'm comin' home to you 

They threw a party there from dusk 'till dawn 
Seems like everybody knows old sleepy John 
He said next time I better bring you along 
I'm comin' home to you 

They had fresh caught salmon on the bareques 
There were people jammin' all night to the blues 
Life is good out in Santa Cruz but 
I'm comin' home to you 

Chorus 

I drove forever out to God knows where 
Come ten-thirty there was no one there 
They couldn't pay me but I didn't care 
I'm comin' home to you 

I'm feelin' better since I got your card 
I read it over and over when the road gets hard 
Ain't nothin' better than your own backyard 
I'm comin' home to you 

Chorus TWICE 

Packed my suitcase and I racked my brain 
Bought a ticket on the late night train 
Took a taxi in the pourin' rain......
