Back home again (midi)

E ~ E E7 A

1. There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin' in,

B7 E

the afternoorn is heavy on your shoulders.

E E7 A

There's a truck out on the four lane, a mile or more away,

B7 E

the whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder.

E E7 A

2. He's an hour away from ridin' on your prayers up in the sky,

B7 E

and ten days on the road are barely gone.

E E7 A

There's a fire softly burning, supper's on the stove,

B7 E - E7

but it's the light in your eyes that makes him warm.

A B7 E - E7

Hey, it's good to be back home again,

A B7 E A

sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend,

B7 E

yes, 'n, hey it's good to be back home again.

E E7 A

3. There’s all the news to tell him: how's you spend your time?

B7 E

And what's the latest thing the neighbors say ?

E E7 A

And your mother called last Friday, "Sunshine" made her cry,

B7 E - E7

and you felt the baby move just yesterday.

+ CHORUS + E7

A B7 E A

And oh, the time that I can lay this tired old body down,

F#m B7 E - E7

and feel your fingers feather-soft upon me.

A B7 E A

The kisses that I live for, the love that lights my way,

F#m A B7

the happiness that livin' with you brings me.

E E7 A

4. It's the sweetest thing I know of, just spending time with you,

B7 E

it's the little things that make a house a home.

E E7 A

Like a fire softly burning and supper on the stove,

B7 E - E7

and the light in your eyes that makes me warm.

A B7 E - E7

Hey, it's good to be back home again,

A B7 E A

sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend,

B7 E

yes, 'n, hey it's good to be back home again. (2x)

B7 A - E

I said, hey, it’s good to be back home again.
