[Verse 1]
D G D
Had a lot of faith when I was young

Things were different where I come from

Never thought much of home, Angeline, that haunts me now.

I left home just to get away

Find some work and earn some pay
G D G A D
But o-oh, God, the years, Angeline, I lost my way
[Chorus]

There’s my mother in her letters. There’s my father singin’ tunes
(D) G D G A D
There’s my Sisters and my Brothers. Angeline, I think of you

D G D
It ain’t hard to find a friend
D G A
With cocaine and money to spend
G D G A D
Drinkin’ and playing cards, Angeline, it fell apart.
D G D
You can lose your head so fast,
D G A
Crash like a freight train comin’ off the tracks
G D G A D
I ki-illed a man that night, Angeline, I took his life…
[Chorus]
(D) G D G D
There’s my mother in her letters. There’s my father singin’ tunes
(D) G D G A D
There’s my Sisters and my Brothers. Angeline, I think of you

Ain’t it funny how things can change

And I wonder if you feel the same

Twenty long ye-ars remain, Angeline, comin’ home to you…

Home to my mother, and her letters. Home to father, singin' tunes.

Home to my sisters and my brothers, Angeline, comin' home to you.

Angeline, comin' home to you.
