INTRO: B

B                                                     F#7
Stealin' cars and doin' dope, not necessarily in that order
                                                                   B
Has been my life since we last spoke, before I headed south of the border
                                                B7                E
When we fell apart I fell apart, I'm not sure I know myself these days
                                               F#7                               B
I'm outlawed now, there's no fresh start, this runnin' game's my life not just a phase


CHORUS:
         E
So I was thinkin' the other day
                               B
Maybe you could let me off the hook
         F#
And from what you told the law before
                                           B
I'm sure home is the last place they would look
            E                             B
Let me come home, old friend, let me come home
            E                             B
Let me come home, old friend, let me come home
                 F#
Since you're the one who helped them throw the book
                                         B
I'm sure your bed is not a place they'll look


I carried you, you carried me, we never felt the burden, that was our way
Back before my jealousy got heavy and you left me where I lay
I know I killed your soul and it must sound like I'm askin' for the sky
I'm desperate, the truth me told, my head's that high, my fear's about that wide


CHORUS:
And I was thinkin' about some way
To buy a little time for this old crook
And from what you told the law before
I'm sure home is the last place they will look
Let me come home, old friend, let me come home
Let me come home, old friend, let me come home
Since you're the one who helped 'em throw the book
I'm sure your bed is not a place they'll look

Let me come home old friend let me come friend
Let me come home old friend let me come friend
Since you're the one who helped them throw the book
I'm sure your bed is not a place they'll look
