Leaving Home Again Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Eric Douglas

[INTRO]
[G] [D/F#] [Em] [Em]
[C] [D] [G] [G]

[VERSE 1]
When I [G]picture my home[D/F#]town, it’s always [Em]raining
[C]No one on the [D]streets or in the [G]park
It’s [G]like my mind is [D/F#]trying to pro[Em]tect me
From [C]letting ancient [D]ghosts back in my [G]heart

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[G] [D/F#] [Em] [Em]
[C] [D] [G] [G]

[VERSE 2]
That [Em]house still casts a [D/F#]shadow on the [G]corner
The [Em]attic windows [D/F#]shuttered from the [G]years
Our [Em]old oak tree sur[D/F#]rendered to the [G]weather
But it [C]doesn’t bring me [D]tears

[CHORUS]
I [C]stumble down these avenues
[G]Every [D/F#]turn I [Em]take is a dead [D]end
So I’m leaving home [C]again
[D]Leaving home a[G]gain

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[G] [D/F#] [Em] [Em]
[C] [D] [G] [G]

[VERSE 3]
The [G]images come [D/F#]fast and go right [Em]through me
It [C]comes to me in [D]sepia and [G]rain
I [G]watch it streaming [D/F#]past just like a [Em]movie
But there’s [C]something lurking [D]just outside the [G]frame

[VERSE 4]
A [Em]stray dog by the [D/F#]playground standing [G]guard
The [Em]alley by [D/F#]firehouse down[G]town
The [Em]wayward baseball [D/F#]in that widow’s [G]yard
I don’t [C]think we ever [D]found

[CHORUS]
I [C]stumble down these avenues
[G]Every [D/F#]turn I [Em]take is a dead [D]end
So I’m leaving home [C]again
[D]Leaving home a[G]gain [G] [G]

[BRIDGE]
And I’m a [F]thousand miles away
But it’s [C]just like a tattoo
You can [F]leave a place behind
But you’ll [C]always know it stayed inside of [D]you

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[G] [D/F#] [Em] [Em]
[C] [D] [G] [G]
[G] [D/F#] [Em] [Em]
[C] [D] [G] [G]

[VERSE 5]
When I [Em]picture my home[D/F#]town, it’s always [G]raining
So to[Em]day’s as good as [D/F#]any to go [G]back
[Em]Two miles from the [D/F#]exit on that [G]highway
But I [C]think I’ll drive on [D]past

[CHORUS]
I [C]stumble down these avenues
[G]Every [D/F#]turn I [Em]take is a dead [D]end
So I’m leaving home [C]again
[D]Leaving home a[C]gain
