Verse 1

F       C7sus4            F            C7sus4

 Henry loves the ballpark, but lately he ain't coming round

F            C7sus4           F           C7sus4   

 Things have been so different since his youngest boy left town

Verse 2

F              C7sus4            F           C7sus4 

 The fighting seemed so harmless, families somes disagree

F               C7sus4        F        C7sus4           Dm7

 It's hard to know the reason, why he finally chose to leave



Pre-chorus 1

                 Gm7 Bb               Csus4

 But he's gone away,  and his father waits



Chorus 1

 F/A        Bb                 F/A

 And he is watching and he is hoping

                     Gm7                      Csus4

 Though his eyes are weary, his arms are still open

 F/A    Bb                 F/A    Dm7  Gm7    C 

 And his prayer, so softly spok - en,  please come home



[Interlude]



Verse 3

F           C7sus4         F          C7sus4 

 Now Henry sits and wonders in that front porch rocking chair

F          C7sus4     F         C7sus4           Dm7

 Does his boy remember all the love the family shared



Pre-chorus 2

            Gm7 Bb           Csus

 And is he cold, out there alone



[Chorus 1]



Bridge

Bb                    F/A                       Gm7

 To your seat at the table, to your father who weeps

        Csus4               C

 Every night in sleepless dreams 

     F/A    Bb        F/A

 He longs to see his face in younger skin

 Dm7                C        Bb2

 Running down the driveway again



Chorus 2

            Bb                 F/A

 And he is watching and he is hoping

                     Gm7        Csus4

 Though his eyes are weary, his arms are still open

 F/A    Bb                   F/A  Dm7

 And his prayer, so softly spoken

 Gm7    C     

 Please come home
