Verse 1
lights were flashing
G
D
and the icy winds did blow
A
Bm
The water seeped into his shoes
G
D
and the drizzle turned to snow
G
D
His eyes were red, his hopes were dead,
Bm
F#
and the wine was running low
G
A
And the old man came home
His tears fell on the sidewalk
G
D
as he stumbled in the street
G
D
but no one stopped to speak
G
D
For his castle was a hallway
Bm
F#
and the bottle was his friend
G
A
And the old man stumbled in
Up a dark and dingy staircase
G
D
the old man made his way
G
D
as the farthest cot he lay
G
D
And he wondered how it happened
Bm
F#
that he'd ended up this way
G
A
Getting lost like a fool
And as he lay there sleeping
G
D
A vision did appear
A
Bm
Upon his mental shining
G
D
The face of one so dear
G
D
Who'd loved him in the springtime
Bm
F#
Of a long forgotten year
G
A
When the wildflowers did bloom
She touched his grizzled fingers
G
D
And she called him by his name
A
D
Bm
Then he heard the joyful sound
G
D
Of children at their game
G
D
In a farmhouse on a hillside
Bm
F#
In some forgotten town
G
A
Where the river runs down
D
G
D
A
Bm
G
From the forest
D
G
D
Bm
F#
G
A
D
With a mighty roar
the big jet soars
G
D
above the canyon streets
G
D
for the city never sleeps
G
D
To an old forgotten soldier
Bm
F#
the dawn will come no more
G
A
For the old man has come home
G
D
To an old forgotten soldier
Bm
F#
the dawn will come no more
G
A
For the old man has come home
