 *since Gmaj7/Ftakes a bunch of space to write, I'll just refer to it at G7
 in the chords.
 This is how I play this song acoustic. Obviously all the C and C* chords are
 interchangeable (likewise with G and G*), but I just gave my preference as
 sometimes it's easier or sounds better to me to use a certain one.
I'm  in the sky  tonight
There  I can keep  by your  side
Watching  the wide  world riot  and hiding out
I'll  be coming home  next year
Into  the sun  we climb
Climbing  our wings  will burn  white
Everyone strapped  in tight
 We'll  ride it out
I'll  be coming home  next year
Come  on get on,  get on
Take  it 'til life runs out
No  one can find us now
Living  with our heads underground
Into  the night  we shine
Lighting  the way  we glide by
Catch  me if I get  too high
 When I  come down
I'll  be coming home  next year
I'm  in the sky  tonight
There  I can keep  by your  side
Watching  the whole  world wind  around and round
I'll  be coming home  next year
Come  on get on,  get on
Take  it 'til life runs out
No  one can find us now
Living  with our heads underground
I'll  be coming home  next year
I'll  be coming home  next year
Everything's  alright  up here
 If I  come down
I'll  be coming home  next year
 Say good-bye
 Say good-bye
 Say good-bye
 Say good-bye
I'll  be coming home  next year
I'll  be coming home  next year
Everything's  alright  up here
 If  I come down
I'll  be coming home  next year
I'll  be coming home  next year
I'll  be coming home  next year
 It sounds good just ending there on the G, but if you want to play along to
 the fade out section after the last drum break on the studio recording,
 then just play this over and over:
I'll  be coming home  next year
 That's it, hope you guys liked it! Please remember to rate and leave comments/corrections.

in the chords.

This is how I play this song acoustic. Obviously all the C and C* chords are
interchangeable (likewise with G and G*), but I just gave my preference as
sometimes it's easier or sounds better to me to use a certain one.

[G]  [G7]  [C]   [C]

[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year

[G]Into the [G7]sun we [C]climb [C]
[G]Climbing our [G7]wings will [C]burn white[C]
[G]Everyone [G7]strapped in [C]tight
We'll[A7] ride it out
[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year

[C]Come on get o[G]n, get on
[C]Take it 'til life runs [G]out
[C]No one can find us now
[A7]Living with our heads under[D]ground

[G]Into the [G7]night we [C]shine [C]
[G]Lighting the [G7]way we glide [C]by  [C]
[G]Catch me if I [G7]get too [C]high
When [A7]I come down
[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year

[G]I'm in the [G7]sky to[C]night [C]
[G]There I can [G7]keep by [C]your side[C]
[G]Watching the [G7]whole world [C]wind[A7] around and round
[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year

[C]Come on get o[G]n, get on
[C]Take it 'til life runs [G]out
[C]No one can find us now
[A7]Living with our heads under[D]ground

[G]I'll be coming [D]home next [C]year
[G]I'll be coming [D]home next [C]year
[G]Everything's al[D]right up [C]here
If [A7]I come down
[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year

Say good-by[A7]e
Say good-by[C]e
Say good-by[A7]e
Say good-by[C]e   [D]

[G]I'll be coming [D]home next [C]year [C]
[G]I'll be coming [D]home next [C]year [C]
[G]Everything's alr[D]ight up h[C]ere
If[A7] I come down
[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year  [A7]
[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year  [A7]
[C]I'll be coming [D]home next [G]year

It sounds good just ending there on the G, but if you want to play along to
the fade out section after the last drum break on the studio recording,
then just play this over and over:

[G]I'll be coming [D]home next [C]year [C]
