The Head and the Heart – Homecoming Heroes
This is an unreleased song from their live performance on KEXP radio 9-12-12
Capo 3
C Em F Am C
C Em
So now I know
F
People want a story
Am
Want an end with glory
C
And a wave of their flag
C Em
Well as far as I can tell
F
The homecoming heroes
Am
Get put in the headlines
C
And back off they go
F C
And I won’t stand for anything more
F C
Tried our hand even though we were poor
Dm
We’ve put in the time
G C
Casting our lines off shore
C Em
Yes some things I dread
F
I duck into alleys
Am
I avoid the rallies
C
It’s a choice of my own
F C
And I won’t stand for anything more
F C
Tried our hand even though we were poor
Dm
We’ve put in the time
G C
Casting our lines off shore
C Em F
And I’m sorry but I find no glory in that
Fm C
I just want you off my back
C Em F
And there’s not a word in my head floating around
Fm C
You won’t pick your part and put down
F C
And I won’t stand for anything more
F C
Tried our hand even though we were poor
Dm
We’ve put in the time
G C
Casting our lines off shore
Dm
We’ve put in the time
G
Casting our lines
C Em F
And I’m sorry but I find no glory in that
Fm C
I just want you off my back
C Em F
And there’s not a word in my head floating around
Fm C
You won’t pick your part and put down
F
So get out of my head
C
Get out of my head
F Fm C
Get out of my head
