Coming Home
03:35

Capo on 3
F / C / G / Am G /
F / C / G / G
You spend a life time
Trying to build some kind of home
Just to leave it all to make it on your own
Will they have their lives now?
And will there be place for me?
The future is not what it used to be
The stars too close to sleep at night
Two pillows and my blanket tight
Will they see what life has done to me?
Am / F / C / G
I'm coming home again
Did someone wait for me?
I'm coming back again
Will there be place for me?
My pictures are all taken down
Who was I in this town?
It’s not my home anymore
But I'll pack my bag again
I'll pack my bag and leave,
Oh I'm so god damn free
F / C / G / Am G /
F / C / G / G
I never quite stood out
and I never quite fit it
in this city where I used to live
Do you remember that July
I packed my bags and said goodbye
How you kill yourself when you're young
CHORUS
Am / F / C / G
I'm coming home again
Did someone wait for me?
I'm coming back again
Will there be place for me?
My pictures are all taken down
Who was I in this town?
This is not my home anymore
But I'll pack my bag again
I'll pack my bag and leave,
oh I'm so god damn free
MID8
Am / Am / F / F
C / C / G / G
I will figure out who I can be
Don't feel sorry for me
I always find a way somehow
I feel the world in my veins now
And if you ever think of me
And wonder who I've grown to be
You will find me where the sky touches the sea
Oh I died so young
Chorus
I'm coming home again
Did someone wait for me?
I'm coming back again
Will there be place for me?
My pictures are all taken down
Who was I in this town?
This is not my home anymore
But I'll pack my bag again
I'll pack my bag and leave,
oh I'm so god damn free

Follow The River
03:58
|
|||
Oh, it’s quiet
No one left to fill this void in me
I go back where I belong
A free place
Found the winter hid my home so long
Take me back where I belong
So long unease
Sit still hear the breeze
Breathe deep let go you’ll see
That you can go, go on for sure
Never needed more
Leave those burdens you bore
This time around I am not chasing gold
Trust this path to guide my bones
Let go of burdens, follow the river’s pace to know
I will be home wherever I go
and I’ll never be alone
I will find the broken ones and guide them home
Love whoever is around and give them all your heart
let them know they’re not alone,
I hear you, I see, the weariness you’ve grown so long
Take my hand you’re not alone
and I will show
nothing’s needed for we’ve got all that we need
Look around and see, possibilities,
still your mind and you’re free

This Lonely Town
03:30
|
|||
A - E - F#m - D
I won’t leave you behind
I know I get caught up in my head sometimes
It gets rough, to have me around
If you just stand your ground
I know we can find a way
we will find our ways
we can find that place in our minds
But your train leaves in the morning
I will miss you when the sun goes down
I’m proud of you for working
you’re the man I never thought I would find
D / A / F#m / D / A
I know I said I’ll be doing just fine
But I’m tired of the leaving
tired of you never being around
But don’t look down, keep your head held high
I’ll be here in the morning, I’ll be here in this lonely, foreign town.
I’ll wait here every morning, I’ll wait here in this lonely foreign town.
We’ll have time when we get old
To just hang around in another town maybe then
I can show you all these places I know
I would like to buy a boat
Go from coast to coast
Think all the roads we could walk
baby, you and I
but you’re leavin’ in the morning
leaves me lonely in this foreign town
I never thought I’d found someone
I really want to stick around
D / A / F#m / D / A
I know I said I’ll be doing just fine
But I’m tired of the leaving
tired of you never being around
But don’t look down, keep your head held high
I’ll be here in the morning, I’ll be here in this lonely, foreign town.
I’ll be here every morning, I’ll wait here in this lonely foreign town.

Growing Older
04:05
|
|||
I guess I’m older now
growing calmer every day
and sure I’m fine and I have found a way
the comfort a place to stay with you
And I’ve got seeds to sow
Staying in when it gets cold
I read my books and turn the heating on
I write my notes and sing my songs
for you
But don’t look down on me
If my ways don’t suit your speed
I’ve been wandering, been lost and gone
and I know what it means to be free
It’s here within me
I’ll be on my way to find
another season of my life
I’ll never settle down
I’ll never get enough of youth
I will run to seek my truth
All the stumbling up and down
I’ve gone too far, I’ve fucked it up
They all were great mistakes
I will run to seek the edge for the view
Don’t you want that too?
I guess I’m older now
Growing wiser every day
You will find me drinking coffee on the floor
and growing flowers on the balcony, for you
It’s all alive in me
It’s in every breath I breathe
The world I seek with endless galaxies
Every day another way for me
in the universe I see
I’ll be on my way to find
another season of my life
I’ll never settle down
I’ll never get enough of youth
I will run to seek my truth
All the stumbling up and down
I’ve gone too far, I’ve fucked it up
They all were great mistakes
I will run to seek the edge for the view
Don’t you want that too?

Meet Me In The Morning
02:13
|
|||
Meet me in the morning by the sea
The horizon makes it easier to breathe
I’ll tell you all my stories and some more
flickering the curtains of the shore
I wont waste your time, baby, won’t waste your time
We’ll get there right on time
I wont waste your time, no, won’t waste your time
Meet me in the morning by the sea
The horizon makes it easier to breathe
I’ll tell you all my stories and some more
flickering the curtains of the shore
I wont waste your time, no I won’t waste your time
We’ll get there right on time
It took me a while yes it took me a while
this road leads home somehow
I know it’s been rough, but I think we’ll be fine
This road leads home somehow

The Glass Child Sweden
Im an organized mess.I believe in the future,for Ive seen yesterday and Im still alive.When I was 18 I left everything I knew and moved all on my own to London to create the life I wanted to live & find the person I wanted to be. I learned how to build my home in my music and my words. When I sing or write, I'm not scared anymore. I believe in writing your own story,and that's what Im doing here. ... more
