[Verse 1]
               A
I’ll be home soon
A 
Where’s the trumpet?
A
Where’s the crowd?    
                            E
Where’s the ticker tape parade?

               A
I’ll be home soon
A
Where’s the trumpet?
A
Where’s the crowd?
A
Where are you love?
         E
Did you wait?


[Chorus]
     F#m
Its a long road
     C#                  D C# D D# E
But I know it’s a dead end

And then I stop       n.c.

when I decide
               A
to start over again

            F#m
And it’s a long life
     C#                 D C# D D# E
But I know it’s a dead end

And then I stop     n.c.

There’s time
                A
To start all over again

             F#m
And get it together
           C#
Go see my mother
                           D C# D D# E
She can’t know where I’ve been


[Verse 2]
              A
I’ll be home soon
A
Where’s the trumpet?
A
Where’s the crowd?    
                          E
Where’s the ticker tape parade?

              A
I’ll be home soon
A
I’ll be a mess
A
In a dress
                           E
With a cloud hanging on my chest
               E7
Whiskey on my breath


[Chorus 2]
            F#m
But it’s a big world
            C#                        D C# D D#  E
‘til you’ve traveled there and back again
         
It’ll shrink
           F#m
Like you’re up above
         C#               D C# D D#  E
You’re outside lookin’ in

           
And it’s a tough thing
                      A    
Sleeping in my coat again
         F#m
Get it together
          C#
Go see my mother
                           D C# D D#  E
She can’t know where I’ve been


[Verse 3]
 A
I’ll be home soon
A
Where’s the trumpet?
A
Where’s the crowd?    
                         E
Where’s the ticker tape parade?

              A
I’ll be home soon
A
I’ll be a mess
A
In a dress
                           E
With a cloud hanging on my chest
               E7
Whiskey on my breath

              A
I’ll be home soon
A
Where’s the trumpet?
A
Where’s the crowd?
A
Where are you love?  Did you wait?
