  • Played with capo on fret IV. (Song is in G#). Transcribed as if fourth fret were the nut...
    There are three guitars going on this song, an acoustic 6-string, a pedal steel, and an electric 6-string
    well as a piano but if you are all by yourself.....

    Intro starts w/ upstroked E, then an E major scale run:

    E
    One night in Iowa, he and I in a borrowed car
  • F#m
    went driving in the summer, promises in every star
    A
  • out in the distance I could hear some people laughing
    F#m
    I felt my heart beat back a weekend's worth of sadness
  • E
    There was a farmhouse that had long since been deserted
    F#m
  • we stopped and carved our hearts into the wooden surface
    A
    we thought just for an instant we could see the future
  • F#m
    we thought for once we knew what really was important

    O A E
  • R everything sounds like welcome home
    U A
    S Come home
  • A E
    and oh, by the way
    F#m
  • don't you know that I could make
    F#m A
    a dream that's barely half-awake come true
  • A E
    I wanted to say -
    C#m
  • but anything I could have said
    C#m A
    I felt somehow that you already knew
  •  
    Then it turns around like this:

    We got back in the car and listened to a Dylan tape
    we drove around the fields until it started getting late
  • and I went back to my hotel room on the highway
    and he just got back in his car and drove away
     
  • Coming up close
    everything sounds like welcome home
    Come home
  • and oh, by the way
    don't you know that I could make
    a dream that's barely half-awake come true
  • I wanted to say -
    but anything I could have said
    I found somehow that you already knew
  • Coming up close
    everything sounds like welcome home
    Come home
  • Coming up close
    everything sounds like welcome home
    Come home
  • Come on home
