Verse 1: 
C                                                    F
They say there's wreckage washing up all along the coast 
             C              F
No one seems know too much,    or got hit the most 
C                                                F
   Nothing has been spoken, there's not alot to see 
                         C     G
But something has been broken,    that's how feels to me 

Verse 2:
C                                       F
   We had a harmony, I never meant to small boats 
              C         F
Lying out in the water,    like a slick of oil 
C                                              F
Tide is running out to sea, under a darkening sky 
                 C                   Am                  G
The night is falling down on me, and I'm a thinking that I should head on 

Chorus:
F        C                  F
Head on home (been gone to long) 
           C   F            C
Gone too long,    leave my roam 
C

Little wild kitten out hunting, see what he can get 
                  C  F           
You're in a big city,   that won't stop growing yet 
     C                                         F
The sun is goin' down smokin', a flaming testiment

Something has been broken,  and it feels permenant.

   The little seabird flying, he knows were he wants to go 
                  C             F
Quess I ought to pack my stuff,    and do the thing I know 
C                                                    F
   Turn around and head on back, along the old sea walls 
                 C              G                 
I felt somthing give and crack,    and now I'm sorry that's all head on
