[Intro]
G Cadd9 D G (x2)
[Verse 1]GD
She’s been waiting for
GDG
me to come home
She’s been counting the
days while I did roam
BmD
And she kept a flower
AmD7G
The violet blue of them
[Chorus]CDGEmC
And I am coming home
D
(Where my love is now)
CDGEmC
I am coming home
D
Where the flowers are
CDG
teeming with life
[Verse 2]GDGD
Every day my memories
G
remind me
Of what I lost searching
for that rain tree
BmD
But I dreamt a flower
AmD7G
The violet blue of them
[Chorus]CDGEmC
And I am coming home
D
(Where my love is now)
CDGEmC
I am coming home
D
Where the flowers are
CDG
teeming with life
[Verse 3]GDGD
Like me, many people looked
G
for their truth
And the path, it took away
their pure youth
BmD
And they lost a flower
AmD7G
The violet blue of them
