G D A I’ve been gone for so long G And how I missed you D A My heart was aching for home G D A And then one night as I lay down G Somewhere far from you D A I dreamt that I heard you call my name G But my mind was playing games I knew right then that I’d return To where I was before And I was so tired of being away That I just couldn’t stay anymore Chorus: A D What did I ever come here for? A F# G Oh no no no no no A D What did I ever come here for? I thought if I showed up in the night In my best disguise There at your doorway in your porch light That you would look into my eyes And you would realize who I am Put your arms around me You gonna love me so much more Than you ever did before Chorus It wasn’t too long before I showed up at your door I’d been gone a thousand miles I didn’t know how much more I could stand If I could stand at all You said I looked like I’d been through World War II And my soul was worn right through I thought you would read my mind I thought you’d ask me to stay You'd never turn me away like before But you closed your door anyway Chorus Oh no no no no no Chorus | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  D  F#  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
