[D] [D/C#] [G/B]
Verse
[D] Don't go [D/C#]out in the [G/B]night[G/E][G/B]
[D] Even [D/C#]though you know the [G/B][G/B]town[G/E]

Chorus
[Em9] I dream of lying in the [C11]sun
[Em9] In my ears hear the [G7M]ocean roaring
[Em9] Like all good wayfaring [C11]sons
[Em9] I traveled home
[G7M] And the rain is pouring in
Soaks me to my skin
I duck into this public house
Get shattered by the din
Verse

[D] But in my [D/C#]memory I yearned
Chorus Ii
[Em9] So here we are once [C11]again
[Em9] With my friends and the [G7M]whiskey's flowing
[Em9] And as the cold night [C11]air descends
[Em9] I drift away
[G7M] And my mind it wanders
Back to southern skies
I call myself a fool
I hope I wake and [Bmadd9][G]realiiiiiiiiiiiize[G][Bmadd9]
Verse
[D] Two of [D/C#]him's are better than [G/B][G/B]yin[G/E]
[D] Some [D/C#]people they get [G/B]maimed[G/E][G/B]
[D] Yes, round the [D/C#]world I [G/B]have [G/B]been[G/E]
[D] No two [D/C#]places are the [G/B]same[G/E][G/B]
Chorus
[Em9] I dream of lying in the [C11]sun
[Em9] In my ears, hear the [G7M]ocean roaring
[Em9] Like all good wayfaring [C11]sons
[Em9] I traveled home
[G7M] With some more good stories
I build them up through time
They'll all become a pack of lies
When I'm beyond my prime
Bridge
[G7M]Oh my my oh my oh
End
