Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I c[D]all[C]ed [G]my [D]lady
up from Houston
[C]I t[G]old her I was on my way[C]
[D]Now I don't even know
[Am]if that's what I[D] wanted to say[G],
[Gm]anyway
[D]There's much more
than distance between [C]us
[G]A lot more than she'll ever know
An[D]d I'm not even sure
[Am]if this is the w[D]ay I[C] should go[G]
Cause I [Gm]know [D]there's a
brand new sun a [Em]-risin'
Out [D]there on the [G]bay
And it's a long, [Em]long way
[A]Back [D]home [G]I l[D]eft Mobile
yesterday morn[C]ing
[G]I said my goodbyes in the rain
[D]Now I don't even know
[Am]if I'll ever g[D]o there ag[G]ain
[Gm]I could wa[D]it until tomorrow
[Em]Put it o[D]ff one more [Em]day
[G]And it's a long, lon[Em]g way
[A]Back [D]home
[Am]Somebody to love you
when you're waiting home is [G]hard to find
But if you [Bm]grab another number
on a spinning wheel
Or leave [G]you leavin' [Em]all
be[C]hind[G][D]
827 to [C]Tulsa
[G]It's time to be boardin' my flight
But if [D]I head west
I could [Am]be in El P[D]aso toni[G]ght
And I [Gm]don't guess it'd be right
[D]There's a little place down
in [Em]Walden
Where there's [D]dancing
and music all [G]day
And it's a long, [Em]long way
[A]Back [D]home,
and I know she'd [G]understand
That it's a long, [Em]long way
[A]Back [D]home [A]you[D]
