[Verse 1]
[Em]
It's really [A]good to [D]see you
So long since you've [G]been home
You look so good life has been
[A]good to [D]you[Dsus4][D]
But the lines on both our faces show [Dsus4]how
[D]long you've [Dsus4]been away[G]
[Em]You lose a half a lifetime when you look the
other way
[A][Asus4][A]

[Verse 2]
[Asus4][A]
He spends [D]a lot of time these days
just like an old sleeping lion
[G]in the chair[Em]
He's still so strong you know it
But the work is [A]here and there
[Asus4]
[A]And he's so pro[Em]ud...
He'd never let you know
There's so much to talk about
But [A]anyway... it's [F#m]so good to [A]have
you [D]home.[Dsus4]
[D]And I liked standing out here [Dsus4]watching the [D]people all

[Verse 3]
arrive
All the funny ways that people [Dsus4]re- unite,
they're [D]so [G]alive!
[Em]Shrieks of joy
Tears [A]of joy
It [D]would do anyone's heart the [Dsus4]world of
good [D]to come [Dsus4]stand here
[D]On random days,
and just imagine
That you hadn't seen your own
for years [G]and years
And then to [Em]realise...
Just what [A]you've had all this time
[Asus4][A][D]

[Verse 4]
[Dsus4][D]
Every minutes like an hour
The excitement's hard
to take
It's your loved one that
you know well
Still you think of what you'll [G]say[Em]
[G]Precious [Em]memories come [Bm]flooding [Em]through
[A]And tough ones [Asus4]too...
When [A]I look

[Verse 5]
[D]back now
we were so young
You were going away
and you might never [G]return[A]
[Em]I sat on the floor in front of
your chair
[A]And with an ice pop stick you fashioned
a [Asus4]French roll [A]into my hair
Well I [D]guess that was our
way to say goodbye
And then you couldn't make it home in
[G]time [Em]when Rosie died
Sippin beer in the sun she'd say
When the [A]playful rum would try to
wash the bitter tears away...

[Verse 6]
But I [D]liked standing out here,
watching the people all arrive
All the funny ways that people reunite,
[Dsus4]they're s[D]o a[G]live![Em]
Shrieks of joy
Tears of joy
[A]It wou[D]ld do anyone's heart the world of
[Dsus4]good to come[D] stand here
On random days,
and just imagine
That you hadn't seen your own
for years [G]and years
And then to [Em]realise.[Bm]
[Em]
Just what you've had [A]all this time.
Just what you've had all this [F#m]time

[Outro 1]
[A][C#m][Em]
