I'd like a one-way ticket home, ticket home
Em a d d
Where i can watch television, talk on the telephone
Em a d
But every town i wander there's a billboard on a throne

Ticket home
D
I want a ticket home

Em a d g
Does anybody know my name, or recognize my face
Em a d g
I must have come from somewhere, but i can't recall the place
Em a d g
They dropped me at the matinee, they left without a trace

Ticket home

Elvis presley is the king, i was at his crowning
E g a
My life just flashed before my eyes, i must be drowning

Seems like only yesterday i climbed aboard the plane
Raping distance in the skies, while diving in champagne
I would be in exile now, but everywhere's the same
Ticket home
I want a ticket home

Elvis presley is the king, i was at his crowning
My life just flashed before my eyes, i must be drowning

Seems like only yesterday i climbed aboard the plane
Raping distance in the sky, while diving in champagne
I would be in exile now, but everywhere's the same
Ticket home
I want a ticket home
