Homeless - Loudon Wainwright
Capo 2 - written relative to capo
Barchord
[E]
[E]When you were alive, I was never alone[A]
Somewhere in the world, [E]there was something called home
[E]And as long as you lived, I would be allright
[A]There were reasons to win, and i[E]ncentives to fight
A E
Now I'm smoking again. I thought all that was through
Fm# A B
And I don't wanna live. But what else can I do
B
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/loudon_wainwright_iii/homeless_crd.html )
[E]And I feel like I've faked all that I ever did[A]
And I've grown a gray beard, but[E] I cry like a kid
[E]I was seven when I sang you'd ro[A]sin the bow
There in Aunt Mary's kitchen and[E] I don't guess I know
[E]That it's why I've done this for all of this tim[A]e
But now I'm playing and singing,[E] seems a game or a crime
A E
People have called to find out if I'm fine
Fm# A B
I assure them I am. But I'm not - it's a lie
B
[E]They say in the end, your good friends pull you thr[A]ough
But everyone knows, my b[E]est friend was you.
[E]Hey, I've gotten some help. I guess I was afraid[A]
You suppose something will happen when s[E]omeone is paid
But I am getting better once again I'll [A]be strong
After all, listen, I'm s[E]inging this song
A
When you were alive I was never alone
B A E
Somewhere in the world there was something called home
[E]Now I feel like I'm homeless but I will be a[A]lright
I'll get through the days. I'll face-down the ni[E]ght.
You're welcome!
