What a strange day
                       Cm
Put your head out the doorway
                           Ab
into the streets where the kids play
                    D#
a game you used to know
        D#
As the day sets,
                     Cm
into the sky bottled rockets
             Ab
Mothers are calling
                  D#
it's time to come home

D#
Oh
Cm
Oh
Ab
Oh
             D#
It's time to come home

         D#
Now it's nightfall
                      Cm
You've got plans for nothing at all
                  Ab
but who knows who might call
                         D#
but then where would you go?
            D#
Go into the nightlight,
          Cm
into the dim lights
         Ab        
Look for someone who will tell you 
           D#
to come on home

D#
Oh
Cm
Oh
Ab
Oh
             D#
It's time to come home

D#
What a strange time
                    Cm
as you flip on your house lights
         Ab
and you realise
                   D#
there is no one at home
