D F#m
[Verse 1]
D F#m
Summer’s end’s around the bend just flying
D F#m
The swimming suits are on the line just drying
G A
I’ll meet you there per our conversation
G A
I hope I didn’t ruin your whole vacation
[Verse 2]
D F#m
Well you never know how far from home you’re feeling
D F#m
Until you watch the shadows cross the ceiling
G A
Well I don’t know but I can see it snowing
G A
In your car the windows are wide open
[Chorus]
D
Come on home
Bm
Come on home
G A
No you don’t have to be alone
D F#m
Just come on home.
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
D F#m
Valentines break hearts and minds at random
D F#m
That ol’ Easter egg ain’t got a leg to stand on
G A
Well I can see that you can’t win for trying
G A
And New Year’s Eve is bound to leave you crying
[Chorus]
D
Come on home
Bm
Come on home
G A
No you don’t have to be alone
G A
Just come on home.
G A
[Verse 4]
D F#m
The moon and stars hang out in bars just talking
D F#m
I still love that picture of us walking
G A
Just like that ol’ house we thought was haunted
G A
Summer’s end came faster than we wanted
[Chorus]
D
Come on home
Bm
Come on home
G A
No you don’t have to be alone
D
Come on home
Bm
Come on home
G A
No you don’t have to be alone
D
Just come on home.
