B             E           B
Fate will find a way, for you
          E            B
On golden wings and leaden shoes
        F#         (C#m)     A      B
All the way to the house our father knew


    B         E                 B
And this angry storm of slamming doors
          E               B
And broken glass on hardwood floors
      F#             (C#m)     A      F#
Waits for you in the house our father knew




          B                   F#
Don't you hear that defeaning roar
           A                  E
Again and again in a broken refrain
               B                    F#
We're homeward bound, pulled by the sound
   A             B
Of history repeating

B           E               B
Green monkey grass and granite stones
         E                B
A bitter heart and frozen bones
   F#               (C#m)     A      B
Pave the way to the house our father knew


B           E              B
Every second chance, set me free
            E          B
Has come and gone and left a key
   F#               (C#m)     A      F#
Left for you to the house our father knew




          B                   F#
Don't you hear that defeaning roar
           A                  E
Again and again in a broken refrain
               B                    F#
We're homeward bound, pulled by the sound
   A             
Of history repeating



E
All these rooms
E
Stairways going over
E
Let it be 
              F#
The house our father knew



          B                   F#
