[Intro]

C


[Verse 1]

C                          Em
Fog lifts from the harbor, dawn goes down to day
   Am                              F
An agent crests the shadows of the nearby alleyway
C                       Em
Piles of broken bricks, sign posts on the path
Am                              F
Every moment points towards the aftermath
Yeah


[Interlude]

C  Dm  F  (x2)


[Verse 2]

C                                Em
Sailors straggle back from their nights out on the town
Am                             F
Hopeless urchins from the city gather round
C                         Em
Spies from imperial China wash in with the tide
      Am                      F
Every battle heads towards surrender on both sides


[Chorus]

         C              Am
And I am coming home to you
        F               C  G
With my own blood in my mouth
         C              Am
And I am coming home to you
            F          G      C
If it’s the last thing that I do


[Interlude]

C  Dm  F  (x2)


[Verse 3]

C                        Em
Bells ring in the tower, wolves howl in the hills
Am                                F
Chalk marks show up on a few high windowsills
      C                                Em
And a rabbit gives up somewhere, and a dozen hawks descend
Am                            F
Every moment leads toward its own sad end
Yeah


[Interlude]

C  Dm  F  (x2)


[Verse 4]

C                                Em
Ships loosed from their mornings capsize and then they’re gone
Am                             F
Sailors with no captains watch awhile and then move on
       C                              Em
And an agent crests the shadows and I head in her direction
Am                        F
All roads lead toward the same blocked intersection


[Chorus]

         C              Am
And I am coming home to you
        F               C  G
With my own blood in my mouth
         C              Am
And I am coming home to you
            F          G      C
If it’s the last thing that I do
