To Go Home

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1: M. Ward]

Hope it be, my mind don't slip

Sailing on a sinking ship

Into the sunset in death

[Verse 2: M. Ward]

Dark night on a long highway

Little lights in the houses say

There's somebody's staying up late, whoa-oh

[Chorus: M. Ward, M. Ward & Neko Case]

I'll be true

To you, oh yeah, you know I will

And I'll be true

To you forever, or until

I go home

[Refrain: M. Ward]

God, it's great to be alive

Takes the skin right off my hide

To think, I'll have to give it all up someday

[Verse 3: M. Ward]

And if I ever treated you mean

You know that it was only because

I'm sorry I couldn't have you for my own

[Chorus: M. Ward, M. Ward & Neko Case]

I'll be true

To you, oh yeah, you know I will

And I'll be true

To you forever, or until

I go home

[Post-Chorus: M. Ward]

I go home

I, I, I, I go home

I, I, I, I go home

I, I, I, I go home

[Refrain: M. Ward]

God, it's great to be alive

Takes the skin right off my hide

To think, I'll have to give it all up someday
