Capo IV
(D)                    (A)    G
Gone so long and I was going home
                  D     A
Straw man red sun river gold
D                        A      G
How now child have you become a man
                              D      A
Tell me who's here living and who is dead
        Em            G
on that deep rolling track
     D              A
oh I almost doubled back
      G                     D                G
I was halfway there and the night was nearly gone
D                       A     G
I left home when I was just a kid
                                  D     A
to be the guiling writer that my father bid
D                 A      G
find a bone, yes very fine
                  D      A
and oh to see my buckle shine
       Em                 G
And I started out feeling tall
     D                  A
Then I couldn't feel at all
          G                 D                  G
And I was told that I would fall from a mighty height
  Bm      A            Em
A domino stands in the yard
  Bm     A      Em
Today, today by god
    Bm               A       Em
I'm reminded of when we were young
            Bm     A             Em
the way the domino stands in the yard
|G       |A       |
ooh etc.
D                     A     G
... the swan in the little neck
                      D         A
Oh rolling wheel .. stars once crept
D                       A      G
Look out now with the pass of time
                           D      A
Oh I cannot find a single one of mine
    Em                G
And just outside this town
   D                 A
Oh lord I had a breakdown
           G                 D             G
That's the closest that I've come to going home
  Bm      A            Em
A domino stands in the yard
  Bm     A      Em
Today, today by god
    Bm               A       Em
I'm reminded of when we were young
            Bm     A             Em
the way the domino stands in the yard
|Bm   A   |Em7       | repeat to fade out
