Comin' Home
(Bolin/Coverdale/Paice)
From "Come Taste The Band" 1975.


  E       A
  My mama showed me how to rock in the cradle
  But I learned how to roll along
  My papa said, son, gotta get some fun
  'Cause when your old it ain't too good on your own

  E
  Been so long since you heard my song
  Gonna pick up my guitar and play
  Felt so bad when I had to leave you
  But I knew that I'd be back some day

                C       D
  So I'm comin' home
  E
  To give you more than you bargained for
         C      D       E
  Comin' home

  No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
         C      D
  Comin' home
     E
  Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
         C
  Comin' home
        E
  I got over the pain I'm comin' home again

  (Verse 2)
  Groovin' to American Bandstand
  B B onstage with Lucille
  The thrill is gone, but it won't be for long
  'Cause you know I like to play how you feel
  Now that we're back together
  Gonna shiver and shake all night
  I just gotta say the music I play
  Will sure 'nough make you feel alright

  (Verse 3)
  Though I learned how to rock in the cradle
  And rollin' came so easy to me
  From all the years I travelled the world
  Made it all so clear to see
  Been so long since you heard my song
  Gonna pick up my guitar and play
  Felt so bad when I had to leave you
  But I knew that I'd be back some day

  Comin' home
  To give you more than you bargined for
  Comin' home
  No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
  Comin' home
  Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
  Comin' home
  I got over the pain I'm comin' home again
  Comin' home
  Shiver and shakin' anticpatin'
  Comin' home
  The thrill is gone but it won't be for long

  (Verse 2)
  I have always been a sinner
  But then the lady came along

  Till I didn't know right from wrong
  She whispered words of kindness
  I'd never ever heard before
  Golden words and silver tongue
  Till I really couldn't take no more

  Lady luck
  Come on give me what I want
  Pull me up
  Lady luck
  If I see you again
  I will call you my friend

  Come on shake me

D
  I keep singing the same old song
Bm
  Like I did before
D
  When you left me, you left me in darkness
Bm
  I'd never known before
D
  I was restless, a fool for your time
Bm
  Waiting 'round for you to call
D
  But now I've found me an angel of mercy
Bm
  I don't feel bad at all

       E
  Your body was honey, I tasted a lot
      G
  But let me tell you babe, I need more than you got
    A
  I want someone to hold me and keep me satisfied

         Riff
  I need love

  (Verse 2)
  I've got nothing to do, ain't got nothing to say
  Just live your life the way you know
  When you moved on you took all the sweetness
  Was I a fool to let you go

  With the woman I forget for the moment
  All the times we knew before
  Though I'm still singing that same old love song
  Don't want you knocking on my door

  Your body was honey, I tasted a lot
  But let me tell you babe, I need more than you got
  I want someone to hold me and keep me satisfied
  I need love


Drifter

  A  G

        A
  I was born a rambling man
        G
  And I never got the chance
                           A
  To settle down and get a hold on love

  Takin' air and movin' around
     G
  Is all that I seem to be doin'
            A
  And it is bringin' me down

  (Verse 2)
  Drivin' on a highway going nowhere
  Desolation destination
  Guess I'll find it somewhere
  I know if there's trouble
  I ain't takin' the blame
  That's why I keep movin'
  So nobody knows my name

  Listen
D           C         A
  Born a loser  I'm beyond the law
  D                C
  Women behind me, never can find me
           A
  They can never get together

  What I've been here for
               G
  'Cause I'm a drifter

Guitar solo: A
