Vince Gill - Almost Home Chords & Tabs

Almost Home             Capo 3  Vince Gill/Guy Clark
Am                          E
He was sitting in the corner
Am                  E
At a table all a lone
F                             C
A candle burnin' in the darkness
F                                   E7
His glass of wine was almost gone
Am                              E
Something about him felt familiar
Am                              E
And it made me stop and stare
F                               C
The way he held his hands before him
F                               Esus  E
Looked like he was lost in prayer

Am                          E
Hey son, what are you staring at?
Am                                   E
and why do your eyes look so sad?
F                                         C
There's something in the way he sat there
F                               E7
Made me think about my  dad

F                       G
I'm looking for the answer
F               G
Just like everyone
F                               G
I know that there's no ending
F                                            Esus  E7
To the love between a father and a son

Hey son, why don't you pull up one of those empty chairs?
Bring it over here by my side
Maybe Buy me a glass of wine
This looks like a real good place to hide


You know I've always been a fisherman
Fishin' for souls along the way
and You kind of remind me of my only son
I lost him 33 years ago today

I'm looking for the answer
Just like everyone
I know that there's no ending
To the love between a father and a son

There's somethin' I must give you
It's a compass that my Father made
to point you in the right direction
In case you ever lose your way

You know I've got somethin' here in my pocket
It’s just an old silver cross
I think my son would want you to have it
When you think all hope is lost


We're looking for the answer
Just like everyone
I know that there's no ending
To the love between a father and a son

I left him sitting at his table
But I didn't feel alone
For a moment I could see the light
F    G                      Am
Oh we were almost home
F                                C
For a moment I could see the light
F    G                      Am(addD)
Oh we were almost home
