  Intro: G   G   F   F   G   G   F   F

  

  [G]  She saw the ragged edge of [G]nowhere[F] from a fast moving [F]train

  [G]  Watched the scenery fl[G]y by with a f[F]ever in her [F]brain

  [Em]  Seemed like a [Em]good time at the time, [A7]rolling down that tr[A7]ack

  [Em]  Now the only th[Em]ing she wants is a[A7] one-way ticket b[A7]ack

  

  SheUs a[D] homeward looking a[Bm]ngel and she's[D] feeling mighty t[Bm]ired

  Her [D]party dress is t[Bm]attered but her [G]vision is insp[Bm]ired

  And that g[D]irl looking back in the m[Bm]irror, lord, made[D] such a mess of th[Bm]ings

  And she's l[D]eaving in the m[Bm]orning soon as [G]she can find her w[A]ings

  Soon as she can f[G]ind her wings,[G] oh oh o[F]hh-ohhh[F]

  [G](Ins[G]trum[F]enta[F]l; see tab at end for one riff.)

  

  She's so very hungry for a piece of Mama's pie

  Served up on Grandma's china after church on Sunday night

  Oh, now Papa's probably turning out the lights and heading up the stairs

  And the wayward child he never talks about still turns up in his prayers

  

  She's a homeward looking angel and she must be feeling mighty tired

  Her party dress is tattered but her vision is inspired

  And that girl looking back in the mirror, lord, made such a mess of things

  And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings

  

  Oh, yea[C]h... [D](inst[G]rumen[A]tal) [A]  

  There's a [F]road ahead and a [F]road behind

  [G]All roads lead to h[A]ome this time[A]

  

  She's a homeward looking angel and she's feeling mighty tired

  She went gunning for glory but her bullets all misfired

  And that girl looking back in the mirror, lord, made such a mess of things

  And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings

  Soon as she can find her wings, oh oh ohh-ohhh

  Homeward looking angel
