G                   Bm7*   C           C     C/B  Am
Tumbling curls of green by stain-glass streaming light
     Am/E     D7       G    Bm7*          Cmaj7          D
And a yellow coloured lampshade, used to keep us up all night
         G               Bm7*       C          C/B  Am
And the smile upon your face, the tears upon your cheek
          Am/E     D7      G     Bm7*
And the night sky on the window
      Cmaj7                D D/C G/B A7sus4
Your heart calling out to me
 
      G       Em/A  Bm7*
Come running home again, Katie
      C           C/B Am
Come running home again
  Am/E     D7       G     Bm7*
Cross my heart and hope to die
         Cmaj7        D
Shall I cause another tear from your eye
 
 
The mirror that won't talk and your night gown on the door
And the old pedal singer just don't sing no more
You can roll the reels for hours
From the movie   of this book
It's a question mark on this heart of mine
Sends an elder back to look
 
Come running home again, Katie
Come running home again
Cross my heart and hope to die
Shall I cause another tear from your eye, Katie
 
Break
 
Now I'm looking through a tunnel
Back into the room
With the genius of a druid, when the sunlight floods the tomb
And I'm never going back there, and I couldn't anyway
'Cause though I made the great escape
I never got away
 
Come running home again, Katie
Come running home again
Cross my heart and hope to die
Shall I cause another tear from your eye
 
Come running home again, Katie
Come running home again
Cross my heart and hope to die
Shall I cause another tear from your eye, Katie
