[F6] [Gm] [C7]
Pardon the smile on my face my friend

Dreamin' of reachin' my journeys end

I got a date with my favourite chair

Chorus
[Cm7] [F7] [Cm7] [F7]
The noises, the TV, the rusty old pipes

The cat always teasin' my dog

The neighbours, the quarrels, the screaming of kids

For the first time in years I'll sleep like a log

We'll be glad to have you share the home fire
