Key: G

 6    6   6  6   -5    -5
Two weeks a-way feels like
-5   -5     5     5     5     5
The whole world should have changed
 5   5   5   -4
But I’m home now
 3    -4    -4    -4  -3   -4
And things still look the same
6   6    6    6 -5 -5  -5
I think I’ll leave it ‘til 
-5 -5   5  5  -3  5    5  5   5   5
To-mor-row to un-pack try to for-get
-4  -4   4    -4    -4  -3   -4
For one more night that I’m back
-4 -3  -4  5  -5   -5
In my flat on the road
  5   -5  -5 5  5  5   -5
Where the cars nev-er stop
-5  5     5    -3    5
Go-ing through the night
5  5  5    -4  -4   4    -4   -4  -4   3
To a life where I can’t watch the sun-set
-4  4   4-55  6    6  -5    -4   -3
I don’t have time  I don’t have time
chorus
 -3   -5    3   -3  -5 3   -3
I’ve still got sand in my shoes
 6 -5  -4    -3    3    -3    3  -3
And I can’t shake the thought of you
-3  -5    3  -3 -5   3  -3
I should get on for-get you
 6  -5   -4  -33 -33 -3
But why would I want to
-3 -5  3   -3   -5  -5
I know we said good-bye
3  3   6    -5   -4    -4   -3   3   -3
An-y-thing else would have been con-fused
 3 -5...-5 -5 -5   4 -4 -4-3
But I  wan-na see you a-gain

Tomorrow’s back to work 
and down to sanity
should run a bath
and then clear up the mess
I made before I left here
Try to remind myself
That I was happy here
Before I knew that I could
Get on a plane and
Fly away from the road
Where the cars never
Stop going through the night
To a life where I can watch the sunset
And take my time 
Take all our time
To chorus
6...-5  -5 -5   4 -4 -4-3
I   wan-na see you a-gain
 4    4   4  4    4  4    4
Two weeks a-way, all it takes
-4   -4   -4   -4  4 -4  -4
To change and turn me a-round
 -3   -3  -4 4   4    4  4
I’ve fall-en I walked a-way
 4   4  4   4    -4 -4
And nev-er said that I  
 -4  4  -4 -4  -3  2 -44-4-3
Want-ed to see you a-gain
6-5...-5  -5 -5   4 -4 -4-3
I     wan-na see you a-gain
6-5...-5  -5 -5   4 -4 -4-3
I     wan-na see you a-gain
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
