Capo 4

C            Am
Almost home
              G                          Em
When I missed the bottom stair
                 G                         Em
You were braiding your gray hair
              C          Am
It had grown so long
          G               Em
Since I'd been gone

              C           Am
And the perfect girls
             G                           Em
By the pool, they would protest
           G                        Em
The cross around their necks
               C                   Am
But our sons were overseas
G                                        Em                          C     Am
And we all know about the hive and the honey bees

G Em G Em

C                Am
Almost home
                G                        Em
With an olive branch and a dove
                   G                           Em
You were beating on a Persian rug
                   C                                 Am
With your bible and your wedding band
            G                    Em
Both hidden on a TV stand

                C                Am
And the cruel wind blew
           G             Em
Every city father fell
                  G             Em
Off the county carousel
                 C                          Am
While the dogs were eating snow
              G                          Em                      C       Am
All our sons had sunk in a trunk of Noah's clothes

G Em G Em

C            Am
Almost home
              G                     Em
We got lost on our new street
                      G                    Em
While your grieving girls all died in their sleep
             C                      Am
So the dogs all went unfed
               G                         Em
A great dream of bones all piled on the bed

               C                   Am
And the cops couldn't care
                    G                        Em
When that crackhead built a boat
                  G                     Em
And said, "Please, before I go
              C                   Am
May our only honored bone
                G               Em                       C       Am
Be the kinship of the kids and the riot squad"
