VERSE 1:
G
One night in Iowa, he and I in a borrowed car
Em
went driving in the summer, promises in every star
C(2)
out in the distance I could hear some people laughing
Am
I felt my heart beat back a weekend's worth of sadness

VERSE 2:
G
There was a farmhouse that had long since been deserted
Em
we stopped and carved our hearts into the wooden surface
C2
we thought just for an instant we could see the future
Am G
we thought for once we knew what really was important
CHORUS:
G C2
Coming up close
G
everything sounds like welcome home
C2 G
Come home and oh, by the way
Em
don't you know that I could make
Am C
a dream that's barely half-awake come true
G
I wanted to say -
Em
but anything I could have said
Am C
I felt somehow that you already knew
G

VERSE 3:
G
We got back in the car and listened to a Dylan tape
Em
we drove around the fields until it started getting late

and I went back to my hotel room on the highway
Am
and he just got back in his car and drove away
Repeat Chorus twice
