Lyrics

Put your clock back for the winter
She asks when I'll be home again
If I could see those eyes
I know they'd cut me down a size
You're not here, when I need you

So sit and wait
And bend and break
You rise and fall
Just you that's all
I'm here, you're there
It don't mean I don't care
I'm so sorry I was miles away

It's been a day of tiny triumphs
It's been a week spent in dispair
You can't send it down a phone line
I do my best, but I'm not there

So sleep and wake
And dream up your fate
And rise and fall
Watch you grow tall
I'm here, you're there
But you should still know I love you
When I'm miles away

I'll be home again
I'll be home again
Coming home again
Coming home again

Guitar Intro

RIFF 1:
G|-----------|
D|-----------|        Riffs 1 & 2 are played for practicly
A|-----------|        the whole song over and over 4 times each
E|--3-0-0-0--|        (Riff 1 x 4,Riff 2 x 4,etc.).You're best
                      off listening to the CD for timing.Also,
RIFF 2:               I think Karl slaps the first note of these
G|------------|       two riffs (3 or 12) and then pulls/pops the
D|------------|       open string three times, but it sounds ok by
A|------------|       just pulling.
E|--12-0-0-0--|


BRIDGE RIFF:
Part 1:
G|---------------------|
D|---------------------|
A|---------------------|
E|--3-3-33-3-33333333--|

Part 2:
G|----------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------| same timing
A|----------------------------------------------| as part 1
E|--12--12--12-12--12--12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12--|

The bridge is played as Part 1 and Part 2 together after each other.


That's It (at least I think that's it).You should be able to get it
after a couple of times.It's not that hard when you listen to it.


I think when they play live, Karl mixes it up by adding another
riff with the other 2. I think it is...
E|--5-0-0-0--|
