Comin' Home – Deep Purple Song Chord/Tab and Lyric

My mama showed me how to rock in the cradle
But I learned how to roll along
My papa said, son, gotta get some fun
'Cause when your old it ain't too good on your own

Been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar and play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day

So I'm comin' home
To give you more than you bargained for
Comin' home

No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
Comin' home
Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
Comin' home
I got over the pain I'm comin' home again

(Verse 2)
Groovin' to American Bandstand
B B onstage with Lucille
The thrill is gone, but it won't be for long
'Cause you know I like to play how you feel
Now that we're back together
Gonna shiver and shake all night
I just gotta say the music I play
Will sure 'nough make you feel alright

(Verse 3)
Though I learned how to rock in the cradle
And rollin' came so easy to me
From all the years I travelled the world
Made it all so clear to see
Been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar and play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day

Comin' home
To give you more than you bargined for
Comin' home
No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
Comin' home
Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
Comin' home
I got over the pain I'm comin' home again
Comin' home
Shiver and shakin' anticpatin'
Comin' home
The thrill is gone but it won't be for long

Lady Luck
(Cook/Coverdale)
From "Come Taste The Band" 1975.

She was a juke-box dancer
A blue eyed gypsy queen
She always had an answer
For what she'd done and where she'd been
A feathercane Lady Midnight
For all around to see
She spoke with words of wisdom
And this is what she said to me

Lady luck
Come on give me what I want
Pull me up
Lady luck
If I see you again
I will call you my friend

(Verse 2)
I have always been a sinner
But then the lady came along
She stole my heart and turned me 'round
Till I didn't know right from wrong
She whispered words of kindness
I'd never ever heard before
Golden words and silver tongue
Till I really couldn't take no more

Lady luck
Come on give me what I want
Pull me up
Lady luck
If I see you again
I will call you my friend

Come on shake me

Gettin' Tighter
(Bolin/Hughes)
From "Come Taste The Band" 1975.

When night time comes
And I'm ten thousand miles away
Just lose yourself
And watch the band kick back and play

Get up, keep in line
It's gettin' tighter all the time
You say you're feelin' fine
It's gettin' tighter all the time

(Verse 2)
Get a load off your mind
This place is right, it's hard to find
The mood is set alright
It's gonna be a long long night

(Verse 3)
You keep on spinnin' 'round
You find it hard to touch the ground
And time is all it takes
You'll find it easy once you make

Get up, keep in line
It's gettin' tighter all the time
Gettin' tighter

Solo

Gettin' tighter, gettin' tighter

Dealer
(Bolin/Coverdale)
From "Come Taste The Band" 1975.

[E7+9]
If you [E7+9]fool around with the [E7+9]dealer
[E7+9] Remember soon you'll have to [E7+9]pay

He'll creep be[E7+9]hind you like a [E7+9]hunter
[E7+9] Just to steal your soul a[E7+9]way

(Verse 2)
I don't want no one messing with my woman
But just the same, I don't see nobody fooling with you
If you're snowblind Madonna can hold you
But if you don't understand
There is nothing she can do for you

Running from the dealer
Trying to save your soul

I can feel the fire coming from inside you
I know what it's like, 'cause I've been burned before
Ain't no mercy In the hunger
You're a fool to yourself
'Cause your dealer keeps you begging for more

Running from the dealer
Trying to save your soul

In the beginning all you wanted
Was the calm before the storm
If the bluebird plays the eagle, yeah
He finds his song will turn to stone
Dealer

Repeat: E7+9 D A

I Need Love

I keep singing the same old song
Like I did before
When you left me, you left me in darkness
I'd never known before
I was restless, a fool for your time
Waiting 'round for you to call
But now I've found me an angel of mercy
I don't feel bad at all

Your body was honey, I tasted a lot
But let me tell you babe, I need more than you got
I want someone to hold me and keep me satisfied

Riff
I need love

(Verse 2)
I've got nothing to do, ain't got nothing to say
Just live your life the way you know
When you moved on you took all the sweetness
Was I a fool to let you go

With the woman I forget for the moment
All the times we knew before
Though I'm still singing that same old love song
Don't want you knocking on my door

Your body was honey, I tasted a lot
But let me tell you babe, I need more than you got
I want someone to hold me and keep me satisfied
I need love

Drifter
(Bolin/Coverdale)
From "Come Taste The Band" 1975.

I was born a rambling man
And I never got the chance
To settle down and get a hold on love

Takin' air and movin' around
Is all that I seem to be doin'
And it is bringin' me down

(Verse 2)
Drivin' on a highway going nowhere
Desolation destination
Guess I'll find it somewhere
I know if there's trouble
I ain't takin' the blame
That's why I keep movin'
So nobody knows my name

Listen
Born a loser I'm beyond the law
Women behind me, never can find me
They can never get together

What I've been here for
'Cause I'm a drifter

Guitar solo: A

Born a loser I'm beyond the law
Women behind me, never can find me
What a loser, maybe I'll choose her

Solo: A G

Rollin' on
Rollin' on, ain't wastin' my time no more

Love Child

You can walk through fire
Make the north wind blow
Squeeze and tease me honey
When you shake your body
You move my soul, oh yeah

(Verse 2)
Let me be your lover
Won't you let me be your child
Take me through your universe
You know that when you smile
You drive me wild
You got me shakin' all over

This Time Around
(Hughes/Lord)
From "Come Taste The Band" 1975.

The world around us hangs in doubt
You face a crime that we'll hear about
To pay the cost would [Gmaj7/A]never be the same

Eternal lovers we're not to blame
There's no mistake there's no refrain
The same surroundings that [Gmaj7/A]stood
Are here again this time

As I look around you can't be found
To lose you I'd rather see
The endless [D/F#]time of space go passing by
This time around
This time around

So look around we all will be found
In love

To lose you I'd rather see
The endless time of space go passing by

Fly by

You Keep On Moving
(Bolin)
From "Come Taste The Band" 1975.

You keep on moving
Far away, far away
You, you keep on moving
Far away, far away

Everyday wheels are turning
And the cry still returning

Dawn will soon be breaking
The day has just begun
You put your arms around me
Like a circle 'round the sun
You dance across the seasons
To a place that no one knows
Where angels fear to tread

Organ solo: Bm

Dawn will soon be breaking
The day has just begun
You put your arms around me
Like a circle 'round the sun
Dance across the seasons
To a place that no one knows
Where angels fear to tread

You keep on moving
Far away, far away
Everyday wheels are turning
And the cry still returning

Guitar solo: Bm
