  @SONG: * I'M GOIN' HOME

  (tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu,

   and Paul Hutchinson <u9343164@qub.ac.uk>)

  

  Intro:  |E   |G#m  |F#m   |E    |   x3 (Band in 2nd time)			

  

  E       G#m                      

    Mama please don't go 

            F#m      E

  Won't you stay for one more day

  I've been your boy for so long now

  There's so much I, I still have to say

  The sky ripped open and I held my heart in my hand 

  Like a soldier on his very last day

  Cried myself to sleep that night

  And I listened as I heard the angels sing, Sha la la

  

        E        B             D               A

  	Sha la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home

  	Sha la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home	

  

  Something inside of me makes me scream

  How could God take you from a little boy?

  He'll be all right he's by my side

  He's not a little boy, he's my pride and joy, Sha la la la 

  

  	Sha la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home

  	Sha la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home	

  

  Solo: (Same chords as half a verse)

  

  Summer on the radio                        }

  When the phone rang, and it was Jeannette  }- Without guitars

  Saying, "Boy, we got to let her go"        }

  I beg, "No, no not yet"                    }

  You left six of us to fend for ourselves

  Guess it's just part of someone's master plan

  We'll see you left cause your my best friend

  You were lighter then and I smiled when the angels sang sha la la la

  

  	Chorus: (Repeat to fade)

  

  Chords: E-022100  G#m-466444  F#m-244222  B-x24442  D-x00232

  

  NB: Although I think the chord formations shown above are those used on the 

  recording, if you are playing this by yourself you can make the chorus 

  sound really big by using B-799800  D-x50770.  :-)

  Intro riff:

    +   +   +   +        +  +  +     +      +  +   +   +      +    +    +  +

  |-9-----8|--------9|---------|---------|

  |---------|--------9|h11-----9|---------|

  |---------|---------|---------|---------|

  Now play bars 1-4 of the intro riff. This is followed by:

    + + + +   + + + +   + + + +   + + + +

  and then bars 5-8 of the intro riff.

  

  Just play chords for the chorus. The link to v2 is just the intro riff. v2

  is the same as the first half of v1.
